MANILA, March 15 (Reuters) - Cash remittances sent home
by overseas Filipinos rose 3.5% to $2.76 billion in January from
a year earlier, the Philippine central bank said on Wednesday.
The expansion in cash remittances in January was due to the
growth in receipts from land- and sea-based workers, it said in
a statement.
