Beijing has dispatched the Xuzhou, a missile frigate in the area. According to Chinese media, the use of a warship to protect an evacuation operation overseas is a first in the history of the People's Republic of China. The approximately 33,000 Chinese in Libya are mainly used in the construction of railways, oil and telecommunications.
Migrante International, a Filipino migrant worker assistance, estimates that the number of Filipinos stranded in Libya is in fact 30,000. Its chairman, Gary Martinez, said that Manila must do more, especially to get Filipino workers stranded on the sites of oil lost in the Libyan desert.
