WATCH: INQside Look with Chargé d’ affaires Vida Soraya Verzosa of the Philippine Embassy in Syria

Human rights lawyer Vida Soraya Verzosa’s marching order was to “clean up” the Philippine Embassy in Syria, a country where many trafficked Filipinos end up in and fall in the hands of abusive employers.

Three months after her arrival in Syria, INQUIRER.net gets an #INQsideLook from the embassy’s new chargé d’ affaires, who is looking to combat the trafficking of Filipinos by prosecuting and securing a conviction against traffickers through helping victims bring their cases to court.
