Indonesian Maid

It is a very ridiculous demand by Indonesia government to request for the minimum wages of RM800 per month. They have not even take into consideration that these maids are provide with accomodation, food and lodging by the landlord / employer, as well as the levy, medical check up, stampings and others.

Recently our government said it's not Indonesian government's request for the minimum wages, but a suggestion by someone non-related. This made me think that our corrupted government is at it again, this time probably accepted some offers to announce the minimum wages imposed, as well as the off-day once a week!

This is a very unfair rule and regulation to impose especially on the employers. Our agents here charged a fee of close to RM8,000 for hiring a maid, and if an off-day is included as well the minimum wages, that means Indonesian maid worth a staggering RM1,200 per month total, which I think is a lot higher than certain profession during their early graduation day. Even a Philipino maid doesn't costs that much and they are more educated and are of better quality.

Probably our government is working closely with the counterpart to try to grab those employers of maid more than ever simply because they are offered a share of it! Otherwise how could they said something a day or two earlier, and changed their version at will, and put blame on media for wrong intepretion?

For this I think it is a totally non-workable idea, and only those asshole and idiots would agree with these fucking term!
