We have attached the subject letter that was recieved by President Barrack Obama to be aware of the continued Human Rights violations towards foreign investors / tourist that visit/live in the Philippines. The world should become aware of this situation in the Philippines and the lack of attention given by the Philippine government.

1. Dear Mr President,
I write to you today to express a great concern about Crimes Against Humanity that are being perpetrated inthe country
of the Philippines toward our American Citizens and Foreign Nationals from around the world.
It has come to my attention that Foreign Tourists and Investors living and working in the Philippines have become a
target of corrupt Immigration Officials. These American Citizens along with Europeans, Asians, Indians and Africansare
being illegally and arbitrarily detained for months and even years with NO Due Process and NO Legal Basis for their
arbitrary detention. It appears that Extortion and Corruption is the only reason that is holding these fellow Americans
captive in the Philippines.
I think it is important to express the great need for the United States to act on this matter immediately and with the
same strength and vigor that the United States is known for in protecting its own citizens should a rogue nation cause
irreparable harm to any person both Foreign and Domestic.
Recently several news articles were published about these Crimes Against Humanity involving the rogue Philippine
Government Department (The Bureau of Immigration) running a Kidnap for ransom operation against Foreign
Nationals. CNN has been investigating these events along with several media corporations which I will supply as links
later on in my letter.
Mr. President, you will be visiting the Philippines in the coming months and I would like to ask you as a World Leader
and as one of the greatest American Presidents if you and your organization can look seriously at the events that are
unfolding in the Philippines toward unsuspecting and honest, hardworking Americans and I urge you to not allow this
illegal activity to persist in this world.
Filipinos living in the United States number in the Millions and countless Filipinos live, work and have started families in
the United States and have become Immigrants to our great country. However, it is estimated that more than 300,000
Filipinos have overstayed their visa’s and are now ILLEGAL ALIENS living in the United States. Yet the United States
Government does not Lock Up and Illegally Arrest , Extort Money, Deport with no cause and Blacklist these Filipinos.
The Question is WHY then does the Philippines Bureau of Immigration treat our Foreign visitors with a completely
different set of rules? Why does the Philippines completely disobey their own Constitution and Laws Governing
Deportation and How can the Philippines be committing so many international human rights violations and nothing has
been done to stop it?
Our organization has been following this story and uncovering the hidden secrets of the Philippines Immigration through
our legal representatives. We have interviewed hundreds of detainees that have been illegally arrested by the Bureau of
Immigration in the Philippines. Many have been illegally deported and blacklisted already while hundreds more still wait
patiently at the countries detention center in Camp Bagong Diwa in Bicutan Philippines for some type of resolution
about their cases. Several of the Americans in Bicutan have been Illegally and Arbitrarily detained for as many as 10
years. Even the Office of the President of the Philippines has agreed that there is Prima Facie evidence that these
individuals have been illegally and arbitrarily detained yet they continue to suffer away from their families, locked up in
some of the worst conditions in the known world.
The Bureau of Immigration Chief OIC Siegfred B. Mison regularly is challenged by the media and makes statements to
the press about how this new overhaul will change everything. They keep saying that this will stop, yet nothing has been
done. Americans and other Foreign Nationals need the help of the United States Government to investigate these
crimes and punish those who are contributing to the illegal and arbitrary detention that continues to hold our citizens
for NO explainable reason.

2. Mr. President, I am deeply saddend at what I have learned in the last year as our group FFJ (Foreigners For Justice) has
witnessed these atrocities how many lives have been destroyed, families torn apart because these unscrupulous
Immigration Officials continue to defy their own constitutional laws and create Martial Law. Still the Philippines
Government which includes the DOJ (Department of Justice) and the Office of the President have yet to do anything to
make the situation better. In fact, the problem is growing more severe at this very moment.
Here are some of the links which you can use as reference guides to give you some inclination as to the scale of the
problem and how much has already been done yet our people are still suffering at the hands of this Unscrupulous
organization which operates more like an organized crime syndacate than a Government Agency.

Mr. President, I ask you to please protect our citizens from this abuse and speak with President Ninoy Aquino about this
matter personally. Please do not take any white-wash spoken word as the fact. I beg you sir to create an investigative
group through the Manila US Embassy to thoroughly investigate the illegal and arbitrary detentions that are part of
every day life in the Philippines and help us put an end to this abuse against all Foreign Nationals living or visiting the
country of the Philippines.
Sincerely,
James W. McArthy
