A single mother of a teenage girl, a serial entrepreneur, and the founder of several businesses. The key to balancing these seemingly opposing worlds has been the rich network of contacts I’ve built over the years—contacts that support me in both my personal and professional life.
I share my journey from a struggling single mum to a successful, globally-connected entrepreneur, showing how my expanding network has increased my net worth. My mission is to inspire budding entrepreneurs through my story and expertise so they too can overcome life’s obstacles, succeed in business, and grow both their networks and net worth.
I founded Faith Maid Agency, a leading agency specializing in Indonesian maids. Alongside this, I established a training centre to equip Indonesian maids with valuable skills (English, Mandarin, and Computer) they can use in their personal and working life in Singapore and Indonesia.
I also offer a rental space for training sessions, available for rent by the hour and daily, with a capacity of up to 15 people.
In 2003, I opened STM Phone to help maids stay connected with their families back home. I also run Dapur Bakso, serving Indonesian beef noodle soup, a beloved dish that brings a taste of home to the community.
My latest initiative, the ONE Networking Group, reflects my commitment to fostering strong business relationships. Through this digital platform, I am making it easier for members to collaborate, grow their businesses, and expand their networks.
Balancing my role as a mother with my entrepreneurial ventures has also inspired the next generation—my daughters have followed in my footsteps by establishing their own successful manicure and nail art businesses instagram.com/nailsbyfiona and instagram.com/nailsbyfels.
Oei Aisoen’s entrepreneurial journey was marked by her innovative spirit and dedication to uplifting others.
Single Mum-preneur

Over the next three years, she opened seven more shops, establishing herself as a successful businesswoman while still in her twenties.
Faith Maid Agency Pte Ltd
A natural entrepreneur, Oei seizes business opportunities as they arise. Her next business venture – Faith Maid Agency – fills the demand for foreign domestic workers from Indonesia, Myanmar and the Philippines in Singapore homes.

The One Club

Dapur Bakso
Dapur Bakso started with a simple idea: to offer a variety of Indonesian dishes and snacks to our community in Singapore, including Indonesians who have settled there. They wanted to create a place where everyone could come together and enjoy familiar Indonesian treats like meatballs, fried snacks, chicken noodles, and cendol. That’s how Dapur Bakso was born.
Public Figure
As a business owner, you owe it to your business to always being growing. With the mantra ‘your network is your net worth’, Oei aspires to help other women to build their network and grow their businesses just as she has done. While her success is the result of her passion, hard work and determination, it is the global network she has built that has allowed her to achieve such great entrepreneurial heights.
As a single mother, serial entrepreneur and motivational business coach, Oei understands the particular stresses women go through as business owners. The journey she’s sharing are based around helping women balance the demands of their business, their employees and their family as they try to “have it all”.
“Business women have to learn to put themselves first. And that is something I see as my mission. To empower my fellow female business owners to put themselves first by putting herself as priority and be strong. She will be able to be the pillar for her own business so that they can reach their goals and achieve their dreams.”
