Sometimes, people tend to think negative about foreign workers.
"They caused high criminal rate. They are lazy. They are problem maker. They took advantage of their employers, and bla bla bla..."
That is what 'some' people thought. And yes, some of them might be true. But some might be not.
They sacrificed their time for the families and do not have direct contact with any of them. They work days and nights without any leave. They need to learn the new cultures of ours.
Yet, it's a pity that some of us just do not know how to appreciate.
See them as a human being. Who has feeling and pain.
Imagine that it was you. Far from families and loved ones and never got to see them for years.
How would you feel?
Will it be okay for you to leave your little ones for weeks, without any knowing what happen to them?
Will it be okay for you to celebrate 'Raya' or 'Chinese New Year' or Christmas with your boss, not your family?
Just leave it that with the two reasons that I bet you'll never survive a day for doing so.
So please, treat them well.
They earn respect.
p.s. Watch the Filipino film 'Anak'. You'll be touched for what these people actually sacrificed for the sake of their loved ones.
