Herminia Editha Erorita-Jose (Baby / Babes) Born Herminia Editha Correa Erorita on October 6, 1960
Through the efforts of the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA), an illegal recruiter has been apprehended by the Task Force Against Illegal Recruitment (TFAIR).

Ms. Herminia Editha C. Erorita also known as Babes Erorita / Ma. Rosario T. Correa of Travel Babes Consultancy Services has been apprehended for illegal recruitment and human trafficking in a TFAIR entrapment operation in Manila City. The company was illegally deploying numerous Filipinos in Australia.

The company is not registered with the Philippine Overseas Employment Agency (POEA).

The arrest was made due to complaints lodged against her by four complainants whom she promised work placement in the said country. The complainants were escorted by Ms. Erorita thru NAIA airport on for flight to Australia, upon submission of their documents such as passports, bio-data, medical examination results, and payment of the processing fee ranging from P50,000 to P600,000, including airfare and hotel accommodation.

However, upon their arrival to Australia, they were surprised when officers of Australian Immigration held them and subjected them for interview and verification. They were later banned entry due to the lack of supporting documents for their stay.

The complainants were immediately deported to Australia where they were arrested and detained at the Australian Immigation cell for 10 days. They were only able to come home when their relatives sent them tickets.

Upon learning of their predicament, the Philippine Embassy in Australia, came to their aid. The Embassy reported the illegal deployment of Travel Babes Consultancy Services to the DFA.

The DFA’s Office of the Undersecretary for Migrant Workers Affairs immediately referred the case to TFAIR to conduct further investigation.

After conducting a thorough investigation, the TFAIR set up an entrapment operation for Ms. Babes arrest. A case against him and three others is now lodged before the Office of the Chief State Prosecutor of the Department of Justice.

DFA Undersecretary for Migrant Workers Affairs Esteban B. Conejos said that the DFA will continue to work tirelessly with other concerned government agencies to bring illegal recruiters to justice.

He said that Filipinos who were victims of illegal recruiters and were repatriated home are reminded to file charges against their recruiters. They can sign affidavits which would be used against the unscrupulous recruiters. END
