Otherwise,
you can also find Malaysian live-in maids. This solution will avoid
the hassle of looking into a bio-data and process for the work permit,
but the salaries are usually higher.
When looking for a live-out maid
or domestic servant, it is most recommended to make sure that the maid
is carrying a Malaysian I.C., as only Malaysian maids are allowed to
work on a part-time basis and for houses only. Foreigners are only
entitled to work under one employer's name only, so beware of a maid
whose work permit is under the last employer's name and wants to work
for you. Moreover, holding a copy of a Malaysian I.C. will represent
a guarantee for security reasons.
Drivers in Malaysia :
Drivers are quite easy to find through friends, recommendation or advertisements.
They represent a good solution for whoever needs to avoid the stress
of driving, or who is not really familiar with the roads in Malaysia.
Moreover, it can also represent an economic solution for couples possessing
one car only, as the driver might arrange for the transportation for
both husband and wife.
The salary for experienced drivers usually starts at RM1,000 to rise
up to RM2,000.
