Unhappy with her maid, an employer told Regent Maid Agency that she planned to raise her concerns to the Minister of Manpower and the Minister of Home Affairs, claimed the agency.
The employer, Ms L, had previously joined a number of beauty pageants, including Miss Universe Singapore, and won an environment-related title last year.

On Sept 16, Regent Maid Agency shared on Facebook a video of Ms L scolding the maid, apparently recorded by Ms L herself.

In the video, Ms L can be heard yelling at the maid who remained silent and refused to respond to her: "Hello! You think what? My time is very what? What do you think you are?"

The agency said in a Facebook post: "We wish to address a recent situation involving one of our employers who has flagged our agency on social media. Although the employer has not named our agency explicitly, she has indicated that she plans to do so soon."

The agency tried to address Ms L's issues with the maid's language proficiency and performance but to no avail.

"Ms. L has informed us via WhatsApp that she plans to raise her concerns with Dr Tan (See Leng), the Minister in charge of MOM (Ministry of Manpower), Mr Ng Chee Khern, the permanent secretary, and Mr K Shanmugam, the Minister of Home Affairs," said the agency.

"Additionally, as a social media influencer, she intends to publicly highlight her experiences to prevent other employers from facing similar issues."

In response, the agency said its agent worked to manage Ms L’s expectations concerning the maid's capabilities and salary.

"We provided continuous support to both Ms L and the helper, including counselling sessions to address the performance and communication issues," said the agency.

"The helper experienced significant stress due to the work environment, including instances of verbal abuse. The helper sought assistance and considered repatriation due to the challenging conditions."

The agency added: "Ms L was informed of the agency's policy regarding replacement fees and repatriation costs, which had been previously explained. Despite this, Ms L’s inquiries and dissatisfaction persisted, even extending beyond working hours."

A Stomper who had seen the video commented: "As she is an influencer and someone who holds a prestigious title, it is deeply troubling to see such a public figure behaving in this manner.

"This behavior not only reflects poorly on her, but it also sets a negative example, especially considering that she has two young children at home who are likely exposed to this conduct.

"The treatment of domestic helpers in this way is unacceptable and reminiscent of slavery."
