MP Safa Al-Hashem made new proposal to ban expatriates from recruiting house maids

MP Safa Al-Hashem made another proposal against expatriates in the country after her previous proposal for increasing fee for driving license rejected by the parliamentary panel.

Safa Al-Hashem, who has been tirelessly trying to build her political popularity by criticizing expatriates, said she will propose to ban expats from recruiting and hiring housemaids. She blammed expatriates for mistreating their maids and distorting Kuwait’s image.

Laws in Kuwait permit expatriates to recruit or hire housemaids, but they have to fulfill certain conditions, including earning good salaries and the payment of an annual fee of KD 200.
