Résumé
Remembering Women: Migration and Social Memory in Singapore and China Kelvin E. Y. Low Vancouver: University of British Columbia Press, 2014, xiv+252p.The term refers to a specific location in Pearl River Delta region in Guangdong province, southern part of China, where many members of diaspora trace their ancestral homelands. While geographic benchmark is certain, of is open to interpretation and representation from many angles. On one hand, it is a matter of fact that a significant number of migrated from that particular place to work in largely in construction industry and to a lesser extent in households and factories. On other hand, this migration is a subject of imagination and deliberation as to who should be included under category Samsui Women and kinds of roles they have assumed in relations to Singapore and China.
