                    [Summary] => HONG KONG (AP) — Hong Kong pop star Jacky Cheung’s Filipino maid has been charged with allegedly stealing a letter and three photos from the singer, news reports said yesterday.


The maid has pleaded innocent to one count of theft and claims the incident is a misunderstanding, Ming Pao Daily News reported.


Cheung said he had planned to only fire the maid, identified as 30-year-old Preslyn Catacutan, but reported the matter to police after she claimed she was falsely accused, Ming Pao said.

                    [Summary] => HONG KONG (AP) — About 500 Filipino and Indonesian maids working in Hong Kong marched through downtown streets yesterday to demand a wage increase.


"Stop modern slavery! Wage increase now!" read placards held by the domestic workers who marched from a downtown square to Hong Kong’s government headquarters.


The protesters demanded the government scrap a 400 Hong Kong dollars ($51) tax on employers that was introduced in 2003 when Hong Kong’s economy was in recession, and raise their minimum monthly salary to the original level of HK$3,670 ($471).
