#IASVOTES presents a WEBINAR titled Harnessing the Power of the Overseas Filipino Voter. The enactment of the Overseas Absentee Voting Law (Republic Act 9189) gave life and meaning to Article V, Section 2 of the Constitution, to provide a system for absentee voting by qualified Filipinos abroad. Its primary aim is to ensure equal opportunity for all eligible citizens of the Philippines who are living or staying abroad to exercise their fundamental right to vote. This specifically recognized the role played in nation building by Overseas Filipino Workers who have to leave the country mainly for economic reason in order to offer a better life for their families back home.
