Their migration trajectories reflect the restructuring of the international economy, which exacts demand for cheap labor in the service industry, mainly as nurses, nannies, and domestic workers, otherwise known as the "servants of globalization." These servants are, in the words of Ninotchka Rosca, the "shameful export" of the Philippines.
