Indonesian Maids in Singapore

In this year's budget, government makes it slightly cheaper to employ a maid - a must for many households in Singapore.

I always believe we should not choose maid based on nationality.

The new president in Indonesia was reported to say that he wants to stop "exporting" maids to other countries. In my opinion, this is probably hard to implement in the short term.

In Singapore, Filipino maids and Indonesian maids are popular domestic helpers in Singapore. It is usually cheaper to employ an Indonesian maid than a filipino maid.

Based on my observation, Indonesian is less picky in "selecting" employer. So you will probably find less transfer Indonesian maid as compared to transfer Filipino maids.

If you need to hire a maid and are interested in getting an Indonesian maid, you can refer to Indonesian maid for many choices.
