I know it is insane thinking of mine to bring her life into danger by hitting in minor. Sorry f I get wrong.
Hmmp. Wish not sabotage
May be the thief tail her from home, and also ready know that helpers have a lot money
So much money why carry on cash better keep in bank more safety
"Crab mentality"describe the phrase "if I can’t have it, neither you"sometimes you need to widen your mind and don’t just comment.It doesn’t matter where that bunch of money came from, why don’t we just pray for her fast recovery,as simple as that!Not all helpers that has big amount of money borrowed from bank or what we called loan.Stop being judgemental!Remember,insecurities will kill your life.

Geo shan sa, you focused too much of your worked experiences in working in an agency…. For your info, long time worker doesn’t get agencies to process their papers for renewal..we process by ourselves to immigration, that’s the readon why you don’t know that there’s a lot of FDH here lasted til 10 to more than 20 years employer and some are being paid to 100thousandHkd. Don’t limit your knowledge inside your work place.
Geo Shan Sa Just want to share with you..my Indonesian friend have almost 200k for 7 years salary she put all inside the bank because her husband in Indonesia doesn’t need her remittance while he earned his own salary as a security guard to support family expenses back home.So now I going to replace her and hope I could save my salary as well like she did.
Rose Elj Bud agree with you sis. Most Indonesians save their salary. I have an Indonesian friend before who built a mansion in their place out of her salary. It’s no strange actually. It’s real
What a,stupid question..
Rose Elj Bud its true its stupid question
not every helper take a loan in bank. only stupid people can do this. but the wise will wisely saving her earning so she will not be a helper for the rest of her life. only a person that use to spending money unwisely can be surprise of this ammount of money that holding by a helper. A wise person will always know the reason why she is here in this country. Dont be judgemental ,the judgement belobg to God.
Any way nice story police are not afoolish
We have no right to judge a person we dont know the real reason
can loan in banks here….
i feel sorry about her…how if that money she had is she just borrowed it in a loan shark then this scam bug took it….hope they catch this thief guy….
