            hihi! i am new here. in a very diffcult situation. hope to get some advice.


            my indo maid has been working for me for 10months and suddenly wanted to go back after she got her first full pay of $340. she says she can feel that something had happened to her elder son and she wants to go back immediately. i let her go back for 1 week. i called her in indo and asked her whether her son in fine and if she still wants to come back. she say her son is fine and she still wans to come home, so i bought a return ticket for to come back this morning. this morning she called me and say need to pay airport tax of sgd50, if not they dun let them take plane.
            i say i will remit to her. then she say it’s sgd150.
            so i remit to her but she cannot make it for her plane, so i bought a new air ticket for her. i have been trying to call her hp but it’s always engaged.

            anyone knows about this $150 airport tax from jakarta?

                  Hmmm.....sounds like it leh.


                  Earlier in the same thread, http://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=903&start=5390
                  someone also mentioned maid asking for another SGD$200 for tax, VIP transport etc etc. Any mommies here can verify? Is this a new trick used by these domestic helpers? :skeptical:

                    Yes, it's tiring to look after the kids so if you are mentally not prepared for now then consider carefully.

                      I think most likely yes. I dun think need to pay SGD150 for airport tax.
