To Mum 1030
First thing I want to ask you a very personal question if you don't mind.Well
before you married a brits, what you do in Phil and where you live.Is your parents a millionaire?Just curious.If your husband work in a multinational company and was stationed in Phil or in any part in Asia is natural that you can afford four or five maids because its part of the package deal. Meaning
its the company's expense, from house, car,driver,maids, gardener and the childrens school fees including the wifes allowance. And when you have five maids in Phil when you and your family was still living there why did'nt you brought one of them when you move back to England.You are allowed to bring one as what I know, but its a long process and you have to process the papers early.
Expats who's living in Asia especially in Singapore can bring their maid if they
they want to, either American or European.
