Myanmar maids
-
I think all agents will prefer to stick to the contrract then to revise the pay, but so far two that I had dealings with didnt mind. My current maid knows where she stands and the agent told me to decide myself when I should pay her 20 bucks as she came a week b4 the end of the month, so if I decide to keep her I dont need to ask him to endose the contract should I adjust her salary.
What can the agents do if the maid wants to work on and the employer and maid agree to a small adjustment. The same goes for an increment, I didnt tell my agent when i increased my filipina after her third month neither did we change the contract. I guess if the loan is not affected they hv nothing much to say. -
Anyone knows which agent or agency is good for Burmese maids? My friend told me they are cheaper and easier to train. Not sure if it is true though.

Seems like yr friend hv a burmese maid, if so, shes very lucky to have one that is cheap and trainable, you could check the name of her agent and share with us. Whats the price shes paying for her burmese? -

cheaper yes... but easy to train... welll... need to think twice -
I will check with her, I think she is paying around $200 plus. She says the maid is easy to train as in she will listen and not go wild but for cooking and housework need to train like xiao but finally she got it. So I am not sure if its worth the ‘xiao’
part. -
I was shocked too…I check with her again, I remember that is what she said. I am paying my current maid $560!
-
$560! wow is that a philipina? anyway I think $200+ for a maid is almost unheard off these days.

I have had teachable and unteachable maids from indon and philippines. So far this burmese one I currently cooks best (teachable in that sense) but is so irritatingly forgetful in other areas. Likes to do things her way. To me that is difficult to train.
Overall, I am most stressed up by the burmese one, partly because I think she is too young. -

Yes Mine is the same, couldnt cook when she came but loves my mums cooking, never eaten good food b4 so shows great interest in learning how to cook, claims she does not eat pork or beef but finishes every dish my mum cooks, loves to try everything,hates durians but never refuse any when offered...aaah!!. finally shes exposed to the real world, wants to try everyting. Forgetful? yes extremely. Judging her all these 4 mths, I notice that shes too young in carrying out a lot of simple household chores n yes the mynmars never fail to do things their way, downright stubborn too.I have had teachable and unteachable maids from indon and philippines.

My ist mynmar was 29 but knew how to handle household chores even tho she spoke little english.,,,, frm my experience with 2 young maids and others who have mynmars that are of legal working age, the older ones seem to perform better but still stubborn.
The young indons are more flexible to change than the mynmars. I have to constantly remind my maid that shes now in spore n not mynmar. My conclusion....You can take the girl out of the country but not the country out of the girl.
