        Thanks for advice to check her luggage. My last maid sealed up most of her stuff and very quickly sent them home by sea-mail - the big box type. Her face was very black when I tried to check her luggage. Luckily I thought about this scenario, did an inventory check and transferred all the more valuable and important items to a small room at StorHub and a safe deposit box with Certis Cisco 4 months before she was due to leave. I put all the more valuable and important stuff there, including branded items.

          Luckily, my maid took small items and hide in her purse. My hair clip and sock!!! Angry part was she insisted belong to her which are not possible- clip & sock from Jpn. She also took my dried mushroom (half pack) 1 bottle of J&J milk bath - all she need just ask from me and i’ll jolly give it to her…

          Piss off also when claim for waiver of maid level - MOM needs letter from airline office to proof that she "flew". Garuda want charge me $30 for admin fee and must go down office to pick up somemore… cannot understand why $30? only a pc of paper and few sentences. $10-$15 is still acceptable $*@#@#!!!

            Huh? MOM cannot talk to ICA to ascertain the maid left? Send email and cc your mp - faster. This is ridiculous.
