WeDpro Managing Director, Aida Santos, talks about the struggle of Filipinos fathered, then abandoned, by US soldiers, in the December 31, 2012 issue of the Guardian. “We are hoping there will be a discussion even just to open the issue,” says Aida Santos, managing director of Wedpro, the NGO that has helped the Amerasians form an advocacy group, United Philippine Amerasians. She said: “There are more Amerasians than the eye can see. They need shelter, education, training, jobs.”
