She is a woman. To be fair to her, she was born in Indonesia, and were sent back to mainland China back in the Soekarno era with hundreds thousands of Chinese descents, including my aunt and uncle. Later, when things were getting crazy in China, she and many others including my aunt and uncle were smuggled out to HK and live in HK since then . So I can understand why she feared the handover. But she made poor choices after poor choices and have to live with it.
