I think M'sia need to explore getting cheaper maids from Cambodia, Bangladesh or even Vietnam. We also need to prosecute "brutal" M'sian employers.

Indonesia not lifting ban on maids anytime soon
Indonesia placed a moratorium on sending domestic helpers to Malaysia on June 26, 2009 after a series of high-profile incidents of maid abuse which raised a huge public outcry in Indonesia.
He said the Indonesian government will not be lifting the ban until the MoU regulating domestic helpers has been amended to provide greater protection for them.
The two countries have met four times, the latest meeting was on Aug 23 last year in Jakarta, under the Joint Working Group (JWG) to negotiate on the MoU. Since then, talks have stalled.
