Tales from Victoria Park: Short Stories of Indonesian Women in Hong Kong

By Todd Crowell

Victoria Park in Hong Kong is the crossroads for thousands of Muslim women who come from Indonesia to find their fortunes - or at least support their families - in the teeming Chinese city. Most come as maids, but some descend into the netherworld of overstayers, illegal street hawkers and "PR" girls. Whoever they are, they all know Dina: a woman who sells telephone cards, changes money, dispenses advice and listens to their tales of exile.
