It is not just WGs who get jailed. A friend of mine's Filipina helper forgot to renew her DH visa (very stupid of her, mind you) and was 3 weeks over --- she went to fly home for a holiday and got stopped at the airport, sent to prison for 60 days, and banned from HK for 2 years. Yes, she was stupid as hell for allowing this to happen: my mate would have signed the renewal when she asked - she just totally forgot it was due (she's been here about 11 years or so, so just got complacenet, I guess).
Immigration is very, very tough here! And sadly, even tougher on Filipinas.
I am hopeful that Rose's condition will give them reason to be lenient and just send her home. | |
