LOOK: Filipino In Singapore Grabs The Attention Of Netizens Because Of What Her Employer Made Her Do

Overseas Filipino Workers are willing to give their all for the sake of their families in the Philippines. There are a lot of challenges that migrant workers have to get through in order to provide a good life for their families. One of this is to deal with the attitude of other nationalities as you work abroad.

Domestic helpers are very prone to abuses that some unlucky ones end up lifeless as they return to their hometown in the Philippines.

A picture of a domestic helper is taking rounds online. It seems like a normal restaurant with a couple of people eating happily with nice dishes and delicious foods.

However, if you take a close look at it, you will see a woman, sitting beside the walkway, waiting for her employers to finish eating.

The picture paints a thousand words. The picture depicts the real life of an OFW.

Most people think that working abroad is the greatest thing of all. Yes, earning foreign currency is so much better than earning peso especially now with that the prices of primary needs are soaring high.

Netizens also poured sympathy over the poor domestic helper.

“That is the problem with the most employer. They treat their maid as a slave! They have this concept of i pay them a salary so they have to follow what i say. And when the maid is resting, then accuse them of being lazy! they are also human like us. they get tired too. That is the reason why you hire them to do your housework. Treat them like human la,” says Facebook user Richard Chua.

“My helper is like a family member. My kids will have to greet her. Not only calling me and my wife to eat during meals,my kids also have to call her too. She does the house chores with my kid’s help too! She is not just a helper,she is family too,” says Andy Ng.

“Poor thing! Look at the helper, she is so thin! Someone needs to help check if the employers are ill treating her,” says Francis Ong.
