Hong Kong Law Maker Regina Ip tag Filipino domestic Helper as ''Homewrecker''

Some Filipino workers in Hong Kong rally in front of the office of lawmaker Regina Ip to demand apology from her for labeling Filipino domestic helpers as ''home wreckers'' and ''sexual resources for foreign men in Hong Kong." Regina Ip said in an op-ed article on Chinese-language newspaper Ming Pao last April 18 that "jilted expatriate wives" complained to her of their maids seducing their husbands. How can a lawmaker judge the Filipino domestic helper in Hong Kong as a ''home wrecker?'' Despite frequent cases of Filipino women being sexually molested or abused by their foreign employers. Maybe some of our fellow domestics helper here is doing some sex trade in their day off. But not only Filipina is doing that, I can see a lot of Chinese women in Yuen Long, standing in the corner and waving to the old Chinese men and their finger have a sign of one or two. When I ask my friend, who is a resident of  Hong Kong, she told me that the Chinese woman is making a sign of $100.00 - 200.00 dollar. And how about the Indonesian? They are sitting in the park near the bus station only in front of  UEA Kwarta Padala. Together with black guys, Nepal and Indian while drinking wine and beer from morning until afternoon? So why Regina Ip single out the Filipino maid?

Is Regina Ip not aware that many male employers have been taking advantage of their ascendancy to seduce Filipinas? Despite offers of money and good life, Filipino women resist such advances, thus, are often punished with sexual molestation, if not fired and sent home to the Philippines? She is an assemblywoman eyed as Hong Kong’s future chief executive, rather than reporting improper behavior by local employers. She need to pay more attention to Filipina maids becoming sexual resources for foreign men in Hong Kong. Ip was more likely unaware of the bitter truth about the abused Filipina domestic helpers have to suffer over the years when she branded them as home wreckers. She is a woman, she also have a maid who take care her home and maybe her kids. Being an assemblywoman she is the one who need to show to all the locals that maids needs to be respect too. She need to know that Filipina is not so powerful and super gorgeous to seduce Hong Kong men into leaving their wives.

But instead all she need to show to all Hong Kong employer that Filipina maid make a big sacrifices leaving their family and small children to work abroad. WE are the one who take care their children, and their homes. And not only that, why Regina Ip did not see that there are a lot of Filipina who is working as a helper that have success in life. For example: Xyza Crus Bacani is also a domestic helper in Hong Kong. But now she is a photographer and she already holds exhibit in Hong Kong. And she receives scholarship in photography in New York University. This are few good qualification of FDH (Filipina Domestic Helper) in Hong Kong.

In several comments from her own fellow men from Hongkong, Ip was pointed to the fact, that the real "home wreckers" are coming from the Mainland because they are having the same language, nothing to loose and only to win. Instead of a Filipino Domestic Helper. If she would be the one, starting an affair with her male employer, she must be always aware of being terminated and send home. She is the one, who has really a lot to loose and I am sure: She will not take this risc.
