I live on the low floor and everytime walk down the stairs

Sometimes see her outside her unit 

so talk and got to know, lah

She said her brother and parents all had a list of problems with their Myanmar Maids

Especially the batch that came after Jan 2024


RE: My downstairs Neighbour SACKED 4 Myanmar Maids . . . - Ola - 11-05-2025

She said the Myanmar people are trying to run out

even those with BAD Attitude running to Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore

To match maids with the right attitude and expectations is 1/50 or 1/60

#1. AND never hire those above 26 Years old.


RE: My downstairs Neighbour SACKED 4 Myanmar Maids . . . - Ola - 11-05-2025

#2. Never let excuses like they need more time to Adjust

because they become LAZY and can threaten Employers with " If I cannot, then Transfer me"

Many people go overseas to study at 16 or 18 YEARS OLD

Do not even need so much time to adjust


RE: My downstairs Neighbour SACKED 4 Myanmar Maids . . . - Ola - 12-05-2025

#3. NEVER use the useless MOM Maid Agency Directory and Ratings

High chance of it are Fake

Because the serious cases write into MOM for further action

#4. Another neighbour said tht Myanmar maids in the Current Batch are very picky

a) If got elderly with medical problem, they will threaten employer

b) If got 2 children below 7 years old, they will act sick or sleep until 9am

c) If no young children or medical elderly but family of 4, they refuse to cook

d) If employer works at home, they always say "Don't know about this and that "


Been more than 1 YEAR, but MOM failed to tighten Myanmar maid problem?

Today saw her and chat with her again

She said only 2 TYPEs of Agencies; Good & Bad

Good can score 9/10 and Bad often score 2/10

Like she set criteria but BAD Agencies will say No or Don't have

And too lazy to manage expectations of maids

by telling lies that maids "need 3 weeks or 4 weeks to adapt"

Think it is getting more common to change maids if they are looking after elderly with medical problems.  My own neighbour were forced to pay their Myanmar maid $700/ mth so that she does not ask for transfer. But is their maid that good?


RE: My downstairs Neighbour SACKED 4 Myanmar Maids . . . - Ola - 03-06-2025

My neighbour said that her Myanmar maid N

as compared to the past 10 or so she had since she was a child

is one of the worst, yet 30+ years old with 2 years completed contract

the previous Employer confirmed don't want to renew her contract

EH? 2 years duration means that maid N can do everything but don't want that maid N ?

My neighbour desperate cos she needs to work so hired maid N.


RE: My downstairs Neighbour SACKED 4 Myanmar Maids . . . - Ola - 07-06-2025

I saw my neighbour at the void deck yesterday and chatted for a few mins

where she said her previous lousy maid M was told that she will be released

but 1 week later, she found a new Employer and wants Transfer

We wonder how come MOM is so bad in managing this when no one called

to ask her for Character Reference?
