Forming FDW Watch Group

[Alaska]

How to execute?  The employers will say we are Kay Poh.

..agreed with Alaska. Each individual employer has its own set of limitation with regards to maid's "freedom".

folks, it's of good intention to have a watchgroup over the FDW, but much of the convincing should be from the employers to educate their FDWs to be responsible, and looking after the children is like looking after their own children (if they have kids of their own). Forming neighbourhood watchgroups for general safety/security would be more practical, rather than just watching out for well-behaved FDWs.

  agreed.  at least to me and my family ..

Good intention but difficult to execute. Unless u are acquainted with the employers, the maids dun give u a damn on ur comments.

Well, you doesn't need to be aquainted with the boss. If the employers wanted someone to help a look out, maybe can just post a pic of the maid in the thread/forum. Anyway, just an idea. Kay poh or not...it's up to individual interpretation. If helping a look out for strangers loitering outside your neighbours house is 'kay-pohing', then I think the spirit of neighbourliness is lost.... T.T
