contact the local minsitry of labour in your city. Ask them for the phone number for the Foreign Worker's Call Center, who can translate your problem. I had pay problems with a school and they sorted it out, took a bit of time but I got my money anyway. they can take care of it while you are out of the country even, they will point you in the right direction.
I don't have the phone number handy but the Minsitry of Labor initially gave the number to me so ask them for it.
