Indonesian Maid Ban expected to be lifted soon

After a spate of ill-treatment of domestic workers by their employees, Indonesia imposed a temporary ban on their citizens coming to work as domestic workers in Malaysia. This is not something Malaysia is proud of. Besides, a ban would mean that many households here would have to bear with not having the services of house-help.

Recruitment agencies in Indonesia have been training workers over the past two months in anticipation of the lifting of the ban. Indonesian labour agents expect to despatch 1,000 domestic workers every month to Malaysia after the republic lifts the two-year moratorium.

Vehicles here in Malaysia have a choice of two types of gasoline or petrol though the capacity of one's car determines the type suitable. There is RON 97 and RON 95, the latter is the type most vehicles use and which is government-subsidized.

The price of premium RON 97 however, fluctuates according to the oil price in the market.

As of yesterday, RON 97 saw an increase of 20 sen which brings the price to RM2.90 a litre. Petrol price in Malaysia is across the board, so no matter in which part of the country you are, the price remains the same.

The price of RON 95 is still at RM1.90 a litre.

These are major petrol brands in Malaysia. Some petrol stations are open 24 hours. Most close by 11:00pm. Cash works best but credit cards are also accepted. All petrol stations are on self-service though some have attendants to assist at no charge.

PIDM extends coverage to foreign currency deposits

Good news for depositors.

From The Star..

KUCHING: The Malaysia Deposit Insurance Corp (PIDM) has extended its deposit insurance system to cover foreign currency deposits with its 24-member commercial banks and 17-member Islamic banks.

The deposit insurance system, which was launched six years ago, protects depositors against the loss of their insured deposits placed with member banks.

PIDM chief operating officer Md Khairuddin Arshad said the maximium limit of the coverage had earlier been raised to RM250,000 per depositor per member bank from RM60,000.

Fixed deposits, current and saving accounts as well as individuals and businesses are protected under the system.

The coverage limit is to be reviewed every five years. The system does not, however, protect deposits not payable in Malaysia, money market deposits, negotiable instruments of deposit and other bearer deposits, repurchase agreements and unit trusts.

"In the unlikely event of a member bank failure, PIDM will reimburse affected depositors promptly on their insured deposits.

"Deposit insurance protection is provided automatically - depositors do not need to apply or pay for this protection," said Khairuddin during a media briefing here Wednesday.
