Stay or go: Abused migrants face tough choice in Singapore
After facing abuse and battery at the hands of their employer, Myanmar domestic workers in Singapore are confronted with a difficult choice: stay and press charges, in often lengthy investigations that rehash their pain, or return home and relinquish any opportunity for recompense.
Ma Ei Phyu Tun, 23, made the decision to stay and file a complaint. Her employer, another Myanmar woman, had left her covered in bruises and scars – injuries that required hospital attention.
