HK to welcome first Cambodian maids
Print Edition
HONG Kong is expecting its first batch of Cambodian domestic helpers in September, thanks to a relaxation of visa restrictions intended to promote communication with countries along the Belt and Road Initiative.
There will be around 1,000 Cambodians in the first group, while the long-term goal is to have over 10,000 more Cambodians employed by Hong Kong families every year, Simon Liu, chairman of Cambodia Human Resource Development Association, said.
The association signed an agreement with the Cambodian government to become its official representative to promote, train and protect Cambodian workers in Hong Kong.
Liu said the first batch will receive training in Cantonese, Chinese cooking, and health care for children and the elderly, before they come to the city.
“There is an ever-increasing demand for domestic helpers from Hong Kong families. The supply of Cambodian maids can ease the situation,” said Elain Fung, director of a Hong Kong employment agency.
Hong Kong relaxed its visa restrictions for Cambodian workers, investors and students on March 1.
