sunday. a supposedly tranquil relaxing day was thrown with surprising revelation....
the wifey has gotten a new pinay maid and this husby got to drive them to LUCKY PLAZA to get her familiarised where to remit her pay back to her filipino family.
LUCKY PLAZA is transformed into a mini filipinoland on sunday. there are maids everywhere - standing around, hanging around, sitting on benches, squatting around. as if not enough, many brought their own mini-stools and plyed it along pavement. how enterprising could they get!!?? they started a makeshift manicure/pedicure biz!
after parking my new volvo, accompanied wifey n new cutie young maid to B1 of LP. wow!! the food court was infested literally by prc bitches who manned the stalls. waiting in long queues were pinay maids ordering food. the prices weren't cheap. for example, a miserable bowl of wan tan mee was sold at $3 with very little thin shreds of char siew if those mushy pieces of broken meat were really that.
it seems that our local girls sure would perish if prc mei meis were put with them in a SURVIVAL CHALLENGE COURSE! but the point here is: how could stalls be over run by prc mei meis while singaporeans are lamenting about being unemployed? were the prcs the stall owners or were they hired cheaply by local or maybe prc guys? or could these prcs be some sgp mens' mistresses?
like i said, it was a very revealing and educating sunday.
