MANILA, Philippines – Christmas in the Philippines will never be complete without the 9-day simbang gabi, the scrumptious Noche Buena laid out on the dinner table, and the whole family laughing wth glee as the kids open their gifts by the tree.
This is a typical scene during the holidays for most Filipinos, who consider Christmas as a time of thanksgiving and as an opportunity to bring the family all under one roof.

Children of overseas Filipino workers spend many Christmases without their parents, who are forced by circumstance to toil in distant countries just to provide for their families back home.
How are the holidays like for these kids who live far away from their OFW parents? Watch this Rappler Christmas special. – Rappler.com
