Faces of Globalization:Home away from home

"HONG KONG, April 9 (UPI) -- It's a sunny Sunday morning in Hong Kong, a perfect day for a picnic in one of the city's parks, the gathering spots for thousands of Filipina and Indonesian women enjoying their lone day off from jobs as domestic helpers.
Clustered in small groups, they sit on benches, on low walls, on newspapers on the ground. They are chatting, eating, sharing photographs of their families, writing letters. One group sits in a circle singing hymns from homemade songbooks.
Like almost all the other women hanging out in Statue Square, Jocelyn Sanchez, 45, works as a domestic helper for a Hong Kong family."

Smartmoney.com: Fund Screen: Velvet Rope Funds
From: www.smartmoney.com
"ONE OF THE joys of mutual funds is that you don't need to be a big spender to participate. Many terrific mutual funds (particularly those we typically highlight here at SmartMoney.com) will let you join the party with a minimum initial investment of $5,000 or less. And as we explained last week, even a mere $500 can get you into some solid funds.
But we won't lie to you. If you've got $10,000 or more to plunk down, you can open the door to some truly stellar funds, with seasoned management, low fees and track records that most fund managers can't touch."
Speaking Out Could Get Investors Sued
From: community.centurytel.net
"NEW YORK (AP) -- Annual meetings have long been considered an open forum where company shareholders could speak out and hope to be heard -- and not worry about being sued for what they say. Until now.
Just as investors are trying to step up their influence over corporate dealings in the wake of all the scandals, a recent lawsuit is raising concerns that they could face litigation when they voice ideas that companies don't like.
The threat of that alone could curb shareholder activism.
The case, which some investor advocates say is the first of its kind, involves a lawsuit filed by Cintas Corp."
