Effect On Industries
In industries where female workers are employed, it is estimated that, out of a total of between 70,000 and 80,- 000, at least 5,000 have been thrown out of work in the past two months owing to the falling off of business caused by the uncertain situation and difficulties connected with
com- munications and
transport. Female workers are employed in many organised and home industries in both Kowloon and Hongkong, par- ticularly in weaving, knitting, em- broldery, machine sowing, shoemak- ing, torch-making, bookbinding, box- making, packing, sorting und in the rubber-shoe industry and the build- ing trade,
