I had a middle-aged Filipina working for me last year as a nanny/house keeper -- 8 hours/day, 5 days/week -- and I paid her QR 1800/mo PLUS I provided transport.
I think, like everything, you pay what you can afford, what you think that service is worth.
Generally speaking, Filipinas earn more money because they have better English skills than most, and generally speaking, Westerners pay more (because we feel too guilty paying crap salaries like the locals usually pay their workers).
