Woman has been the weaker sex and being used, raped, traded, manipulated and sometimes abused throughout the early ages. Millions and millions of untold stories must have happened to them being a commodity of commerce, a chip to settle scores among men, or simply a tool to use. The value of a female can be zilch; there is no need to elaborate on this. However, all this are slowly changing, mainly through education and the fight for rights as human beings, not chattels. The change is not complete and never will be, because of the evolving societal values placed on woman. The story of early migrants, mainly from southern China, to escape famine and start a new life in a yet undeveloped South east Asia, form the threads of the fabric that weave into the new society made up the large diaspora of immigrants.
