Now they say it is okay.....(The Indonesian Maid Saga)...

Hey folks,

It has been really confusing to say at least on the continuing issue relating to the MOU which was signed between Malaysian and Indonesia on domestic helper or maid from Indonesia.

Now the governments of both Malaysia and Indonesia is saying that it was just a miscommunication by the media which reported the 'One Maid...One Task'....

Both governments have said that it is still as per the MOU....okay that is cool to know, the next best thing to do now is we wait and see until the Indonesian maids arrive next month. 

Hopefully, there won't be any confusion this time around especially everybody is just so eager to move on.

We cannot afford any longer to waste our time since this matter is way overdue.  Ordinary folks still in need of maid surely wants to get it over with fast.

Cheerios!

And the Indonesian Maid saga Continues.....

Hey Folks,

bAck to blogging as one would say.

Yes, a nice Sunday here in Malaysia with bright sunlight and typical 25 degrees celsius to 30 degrees celsius temperature of a country close to the equator, what can what expect, Spring season in Malaysia...!  In my dreams! 

Several days ago, majority of Malaysians were shocked and surprised and disgusted (to the maximum for me) that next month, we can only get Indonesians maids specifically for 4 dedicated and explicityly 4 chores as announced by their Director General.  First, for cooking, babysitting, taking care of the elderly, and housekeeping.  Based from the media reports; it seems like this if say I were to employ an Indonesian maid just for babysitting.  Then that maid's task is solely for babysitting and that is it.   Imagine, she will just babysit my son and will not do any other work like what a normally typical Indonesian maid used to do which 'multi-skilling'. 

The best part was that we have to pay RM 700, which is the so-called new salary for the Indonesian Maid.  That is ridiculous especially when you get a maid who is only doing babysitting and nothing much and pay RM 700 per month.  That is really out of the question, why is the Indonesian Government being so unreasonable.  Like dahhh.

Remember back when the 2 leaders met (President Bambang and PM Najib) and have agreed to move forward in this 'maid' issue; everybody was relieved and at that time it was believed that the first batch of these maids will be arriving in December 2011, then it was postpone to January 2012, then it was postpone again to February, March, and now April....  Okay  something is really 'fishy' about this whole 'quagmire', the Malaysian government has been cooperative and accomodative to say at least to listen and cooperate with the Indonesian Government, but why are they (Indonesian Government) doing this back to us? 

As highlighted by PM Najib, it was never been agreed in ref to this latest announcement by Indonesia.  Looks like this matter will still continues and who knows mayb after this we can just gradually forget about hiring Indonesian maids altogether and perhaps go for Filipino (which is pricey), Cambodians, or maybe Thais.  Or we just have to change our lifestyle and be independent and not have any maid at all.  Again; some folks may need maid due to reason that is beyond the reasonable doubt. 

So folks, as Malaysians yes let us express our utmost disappointment with the Indonesian Government (not Indonesian People) for deceiving us.

Cheerios!!!

Cold Blooded Murder!!

Hey Folks,

Back to the world of blogging...

Yesterday, almost everybody was surprised and saddened by the death of an innocent 5 years old girl by the name of Nurul Nadhirah Abdullah.

Earlier she was reported missing, but in the end it was known that her body (after DNA results) burned (charred remains) in the palm oil plantation.

This is EVIL!  How could this happen?  Who ever that 'bugger' or 'devil' is, that evil soul will pay for this...?

Al-Fatihah to her and may Allah blessed and put her in paradise.

Imam Suhaib Webb:

What can I say Imam Suhaib Webb is someone that as a Muslim I can really respect in view of the his vast knowledge of the Quran.  Watching his show on TV Al-Hijrah called "Reflection" gives you a very good perspective on not just the meaning of the surahs (verses of Quran), but also how it can apply to our daily lives.  A good example when he was sharing about surah Al-Fatihah.  Marvelous info!!  You can catch "Reflection" with Imam Suhaib Webb from Wednesdays to Fridays at 10:30p.m.



Keep it up Imam Suhaib, You rule too!
