The
world has always been pro males. The Asian women fare it worst. Women were sold
as slaves, women were made to marry men they don’t know, some of these matches
were made even when the girls were babies. Girls were molested, raped,
impregnated and had their babies aborted or given away, beaten. The modern day
insecure women subject themselves to get their breasts bigger or smaller.
In
story one, two girls born in the 1920s. One “upstairs” as the rich pampered
missy. The other “downstairs”, born to be the slave aka mui zai of the rich girl. Fate and victims of tradition brought
them to Borneo, World War II aka Japanese War and finally to New Zealand.
In
story two, a girl born in the 1960s, ran into trouble with the Communists, and
teenage pregnancy. She ran to the big city of Singapore. Crisis after crisis
plague her. Her whole world shattered and she committed suicide. She ended up
in a mental institution.

My latest book, published 2017. When I was young, words like sex, rape, abuse would be considered X-rated. Today, it is occurring every where. Perhaps I have gone where other writers will not touch on especially in Asia.
