520 _aOut of Harm's Way tells the story of the efforts of the Philippine Government to keep the 1.5 million Overseas Filipino Workers in the Middle East safe and secure during the 2003 US-Iraq War. Written by General Roy A. Cimatu (Ret), designated by President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo as her Special Envoy to the Middle East in late 2002, this book takes the reader behind the scenes as the Middle East Preparedness Team worked for eight months to put in place contingency plans for OFWs before the outbreak of hostilities, during the war itself, and in the immediate post-war period.
