Drawing on ethnographic research conducted with the Thai migrant
community in Hong Kong between 2016 and 2020, this book provides
original insights into the complexity and diversity of identity
negotiation, ethnicity navigation, and womanhood reinvention of
Thai migrant women in Hong Kong. Allowing research to move beyond
standard stories of victimized migrants and domestic workers by
focusing on the increasing number of Southeast Asians moving into
the middle-class, this ethnographic study of the everyday lived
experience of Thai migrant women in Hong Kong will advance a new
understanding of transnational migration and mobility at the
intersections of gender, ethnicity, class, generation, and
religion. This book illustrates the influence of transnationalism
and multiculturalism on migrant women's meaning-making and
accentuates the importance of diversity within a migrant population
- in particular, the importance of maintaining an intersectional
perspective to understand the broader phenomenon of contemporary
middle-class and professional migration within Southeast Asia.
