Overseas Chinese women in Singapore, "red turban"

The red headdress is an appellation of Singaporeans in early years to overseas Chinese women in Sanshui prefectures who made rough work in the area. At that time, Sanshui women to work, usually wearing a blue shirt black pants, wearing sandals worn at the end of the old tires, while the head is wearing a bright red head scarf. This headdress is very special, it is with a piece of hard red cloth folded into square cap, which has the function of sunshade rain and to prevent the dust stain hair. Overseas Chinese women in the Pearl River Delta at the site also have the habit of wearing headscarves. Hood color is a sign of native place, there are blue or other colors. Sanshui women are said to favor the auspicious red. Sanshui is located between Guangzhou and Zhaoqing, named after the convergence of the three rivers, the Xijiang River, the Beijiang River and the Suijiang River. However, in old China, due to political corruption, war, and disrepair of water resources, the flowing water of these three rivers did not bring happiness to the local people but was a disaster. Whenever the river overflows, flooding, the people in order to survive, had to leave their hometown to make a living abroad. From the early Republican China until the eve of the Anti-Japanese War, there were more than 10,000 Sanshui women working in Singapore alone. In Singapore, Sanshui women mostly live in Tofu Street in Chinatown. Because they come from rural areas, there is no culture, so in addition to some of the plastic factory as a handyman, most of them wear red turban to the construction site, to do some and foreign gray, pick bricks, rough removal of wood. Every morning, early evening, work more than 10 hours, only five or six cents a day when wages are low, more than only eleven or two yuan. In the past, a red headdress circulated a song entitled "Sighs of Songs," in which there were sentences of "ten transgressions, nine bitter destinies," "six months in Nanyang, and half a year in tea." This is a true portrayal of their hard life in a foreign country at the time. Working out of the turban, not only with their own hard-earned money to support the elders of their hometown, but quietly for the local economic development has made its own contribution. Singapore is the only overseas-based country. For a long time, there, the Chinese people live in harmony with the Malay and Indians, and by virtue of their intelligence and wisdom, built a small fish village more than 400 years ago as one of the world's leading commercial and shipping centers. If Singapore is an international arena where countless elites perform scenes that make the world marvel, the working class like a red turban will be the foundation of this arena because the brick-and-mortar buildings of Singapore's high-rise buildings all permeate With their sweat. Although today the turban has become a historical monument, the people of Singapore have not forgotten the past history. In 1986, a number of events were held in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the Sanshui Club in Singapore. In April, Singaporean photographers held a "Redheads Photo Exhibition". In May, the Singapore Film Board broadcast 26 sets to the nation Drama "red headdress." In addition, in the museum of Sentosa, a wax figure of a red turban was created. The importance attached to the role of overseas Chinese women is rare.
