The project’s status is now innovating to incorporate an entity that would be registered after it’s finished in Qatar said Loayon, they also organized campaigns to inform the Filipinos and encourage them to be part of the entity, that will function like a membership corporation and that they will benefit from the hospital’s services, being stakeholders of the business as well.

Loayon said that they’re reaching to at least 10% of the 250,000 Filipinos in Qatar. And that the details of the meetings are published in PBC-Q’s Facebook account.

Once the project is completed, Loayon would be proud to say that they chose Qatar’s location to be the first Filipino hospital set outside the Philippines.

Not only Filipinos but expats in Qatar will benefit from the hospital once it’s fully operational.
