菲律賓人寫給香港人的問題:

  1. Q: 努力工作,不要打破僱主對你的信住,你可以嗎?+

  2. Q: 點解香港人會想請菲律賓女傭?+
    A: [*]

總括來說,香港人問得最多的問題是:
-對香港整體感受:(你喜歡香港嗎?)
-對在港工作的感受:(你喜歡你的工作嗎?最喜歡工作的哪部份)
-個人興趣:(喜歡吃的食物?喜歡做的事?)
-與在家鄉的家人的聯繫:(掛念家人嗎?離斷別井與家人的關係有沒有改變?)

大部分回答者的感受都是正面的,她們都會在工作中找到樂趣及堅持的理由,而她們的動力通常來自本身的家庭,希望為子女帶來更好的生活,希望生活質素得到改善。
至於她們之後的打算,大部分回答者都沒有明確的計劃,只是希望做好目前的工作,賺多點錢回家; 但當中亦有希望賺到足夠資金後回鄉經營小生意,起屋,甚至有志成立孤兒院的夢想。
