Therefore, this research analyses the laws provided in order to protect the Indonesian maids' right in Malaysia in order to expose its incomprehensiveness in protecting them since most of Malaysian did employ them as their domestic helper. This research aims to find the possibility of reforming the laws of Malaysia concerning the protection of Indonesian maid. By using the doctrinal and empirical research method, this research looks into the possibilities of loopholes in Malaysian laws and guidelines used by our government in order to protect Indonesian maids that work in Malaysia and compare the steps taken between our government and others government to solve the cases of maid abuses faced by them.
