KUALA LUMPUR - INDONESIA'S ban on supplying maids to Malaysia in protest over reported employer abuse could prompt more Indonesians to work here illegally, a group representing maid-supply agencies said on Sunday.
Mr Raja Zulkeply Dahalan, president of the Malaysian Association of Foreign Housemaids Agencies, said some 4,000 Indonesian maids were recruited each month in Malaysia before Indonesia announced last week it would enforce a ban until more protections are in place.
