The Philippines is the world’s largest exporter of temporary contract labor with a huge 800, 000 workers a year being deployed on either six month or two year contracts. This labor migration is highly regulated by the government, private, and non-governmental/non-private organizations.

Employing a post-structural feminist perspective Tyner questions the very ontology of migration.
