"My parents are dead :
My foster mother took me to the Wing Sheung Brothel where we saw the mistress. It was decided that I should become a prostitute. I did that in order to get money because I was in debt. I gave the money to my foster mother to take back to the country
I have not been a prostitute before. I was a con-
cubine to a man now dead
It was understood that I should practise in Hong Kong but the mistress said: "You cannot get a card here. I must resell you in Singapore". I objected. She said: "Give me back my money". The next day I ran away".

"I am 23 years of age; a prostitute. I come from Shek Lau village in Kuangsi. I have been kidnapped three times by bandits and twice redeemed by my relations for $200 and $500. The third time the ransom demanded was $200. My family had no money left. Three men brought me to Hong Kong and sold me to KWOK TAI KAM for $210. I was bound to her for seven years. The men made me say they were my relations. All my earnings go to KWOK TAI KAM. She told me what to say to the S.C.A.
