has the Indonesian housemaid been banned too in Qatar? why? what now?

I have an Indonesian housemaid approval from the Qatar immigration department. However, I have been told by some manpower agencies that the Indonesian housemaid category has been banned by the Indonesian embassy? Is this true? If yes, what can we hope for now that Qatar will no longer have Filipinos and Indonesians? Why is it always so difficult to settle down here?

FYI, Philippine govt required a minimum salary of $400US for all Philippine housemaid and Qatar government doesnt agree with it. Why Qatar needs to agree with it if they could get a south asian or african housemaid for a lesser cost..thanks
