A video has gone viral on social media showing a local woman shouting at a Filipina maid – “Go back to the Philippines!” – in a dog park on Wan Po Road in Tsuen Kwan O, the New Territories.
The five-minute video, which surfaced on Facebook on Thursday, shows the local woman scolding and pointing a finger at the domestic worker caring for two dogs and a child in a stroller, because of the dogs’ behavior.
The woman complained that the two dogs “always keep barking” and the domestic worker did not control them. She also complained that the maid should not take care of the dogs and the child at the same time.
The domestic worker hit back, saying the woman shouldn’t scold her. But the woman got more emotional, saying “You should shut the f–k up! You’re just the helper.”
When the helper replied, “I am controlling them”, the woman said, “You are not, because your dog is barking [at] my dog!”
The local woman then demanded to speak to the maid’s employer, saying “Ask your boss to come here – I will tell him the rules.”
The domestic worker agreed to call her employer, but the woman continued: “You should change your attitude. You are not [fit] to be a helper. You’re only working in Hong Kong. You should go back to the Philippines. Bad attitude, bad helper!”
The quarrel ended when the domestic worker gave her boss’ phone number to the woman.
The video, filmed by another Filipina domestic worker, Mel C. Santiago, had been shared 17,000 times and garnered 1.2 million views as of Monday.
The woman was slammed by netizens for her bullying and disrespectful attitude. But Apple Daily on Saturday tracked her down and ran the “other side of the story” that the video did not disclose, via a friend.
The woman claimed that her right hand got hurt by her own dog when she was separating the dogs. A few photos showed her bleeding hand and when she allegedly went to a hospital for treatment.
The woman said she got angry because when she complained to the domestic worker, the latter did not respond or apologize to her.
The woman said it was not the first time she complained to the maid, claiming the latter could not control her dogs and let them barking at others while the maid was focused on her mobile phone.
Jalilo dela Torre, Labor Attache at the Philippine Consulate in Hong Kong, said the Filipina could take a case to the Equal Opportunities Commission if the person’s action constituted racial harassment, sunwebhk.com reported.
But it was understood that the domestic worker was not keen to file charges, the report said.
You know what you are an idiot woman, you are not a professional in dealing the situation. While the dog is barking you are also keep on shouting. You are not civilized employer!
Why pointing finger to the helper?Even the baby scared to hear her loud voice.If you are my employer i will definitely terminate my contract .She should control her temper and talk in a nice way to the helper..Crazy woman..????
Stupid chinese woman.
Nakatayo yung mga aso.. kahit pa baka tutok sa cellphone alam siguro nya ng ginagawa nya..
Amo nga nya hinahayaan xang dalin ang aso at Bata.. meaning kaya nya… pinag initan Lang xa eskandalosang babae na yun…
Ako din lagi nakatutuk sa cp kasi kelangan sa coordination sa amo regarding sa mga Bata and they don’t mind kung hawak cp lagi basta safe ang mga alaga.
Wow" I though she’s old lady but she’s so young.. So scary her attitude, she’s so much insulting to the helper.. She don’t care the feeling of others.. What if she’s In the shoes of the helper. The helper connot control her dog same the lady connot control her mouth and bad feelings.. Very embarrassing momment!!
She was hurt by her own dog….
Our kabayan dogs always barks to her dog, so chinese woman,you should avoid these dogs….. I read some comments that these Chinese woman has "attitude"..
I hope the Philippine consulate won’t allow he/herr family to hire a Filipino helper… can’t she talk in a proper way?
Kabayan you should ask her to apologize for what she did… d mo xa kaanu amo para sisgawan sa public place…
Hala noong time na pinapagalitan or binubulyawan niya yong pilipina wala yata akong narinig sa video na sinabi o nabanggit na nasugatan siya ,ngayon na naviral siya nagkasugat na…aayyaaayyy
it happens… tao lang tayo na hindi nakokontrol emosyon natin. no.need to bash. kasi may point din ung chinese woman. treat this as a lesson to all of us lalo na sa mga katulad kong helper na may alagang aso. ako man din pag nagpapasyal ako ng aso na may chinese na binaayaan lang walang tali aso nila, talagang nagagalit ako. sinasabi "hey,watch out your dog!" kasi in second lang pag na-trigger ung temper ng aso hindi natin alam.ang temper nila at nag-away yan, it’s a big trouble! kaya sa mga katulad kong helper pag magpasyal ng aso with kids, be focus. wag mag-celphone.
Maybe that bossy boss wants some extra $ from the barking dogs….i’ve encountered few times same situation before Discovery Bay .I picked up some stuff ftom my boss daughter’s place with my dog.Just out from the lobby door I saw a chinese lady with loads of groceries in both hands coming .I put my stuff and dog aside (away from the door) to hold the door open for her.Instead thanking me for my action, she asked me if Im in working at that building.I told no.I just collect some stuff from my boss daughters place whose staying at that building She conclude that Im doing part time and call police.In few minutes 10 men in uniform came.She talk to them in chinese that my dog attack her.I told her to speak in English.She explain she told the policewhy im there..I told her I understand what she just told to the police.I told the police to check the cctv.I hold the door for her and my dog was too far away from her way.She insist she had heart attack because my dog jump on her that she could go see doctor right away to show me she had heart attack..GO AHEAD I said dont forget the cctv..The police observed my dog whose sleeping at the corner.????????????????????
that Chinese woman should change her attitude.so rude and disgusting..don’t play a drama just to defend yourself against the right people you are hitting because no one will believe you..shame on you
obviously the baby got shock to her rudeness!
crazy employer!
how could we attempt to apologise to a rude person like you?
The baby traumatized with the loud. voice of the women
The woman she said everyday then why she got near to the helper with two dogs she should not come near her because she has dog and babys its hard to control the dog sprcially she’s shouting to the helper u know the dog if u care them talagang magagalit yan sa sumisigaw sa nag alaga sa kanila.
Why will you be afraid to file charges. You shd. give them a lesson that they cannot bully anyone even though they are locals with dollars. You have all the right to let her taste her own medicine. That is why they are abusing most of the helpers, because they knew, you will not file charges. Speak up Filipina girl!
manahimik ka..nlikinuud klng sa video ng dodown kpa ng kapwa mo.!its a park for the dog inday….bkit ngbark lng aman ang aso ng mgccgaw yang hayup n chinese n yan…
Correct the dog continous barking because of her mouth non stop talking non sense.

shame on you stupid chinese woman!!
A Filipina helper who is trying to take care a baby and 2 dogs at the same time deserved to be pointed with fingers and a words "go back to Philippines, you don’t deserved to work here?"…what a shame to this local woman, she don’t deserved either to be served..
