Guess what country has more overseas Chinese population?
Permalink   


Click on the link then scroll down the page to see the list.

There are over 40 million overseas Chinese, mostly living in Southeast Asia where they make up a majority of the population of Singapore and significant minority populations in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, and Vietnam. The overseas populations in those areas arrived between the 16th and 19th centuries mostly from the maritime provinces of Guangdong and Fujian, followed by Hainan. There were incidences of earlier emigration from the 10th to 15th centuries in particular to Malacca and Southeast Asia.

I would vote "Thailand" and "Malaysia", judging from my experience. I see Chinese in Laos not much as Thailand. Mostly, I would say Vietnamese population is much higher than Chinese. I visit my mother's family in Laos last year and saw it so I know what I'm talking.  

Look at where I live, Trang, at the south of Thailand. Look how the Chinese influences local food. They are all delicious!

Trang Roasted Pork - The crispy roasted porks from Trang is very unique. The way the roasted pork is made is truely a traditional one: both in the seasoning mixture and in the ingredients. Oddly enough, they have been served as breakfast in Trang's coffee house. Trang people normally have roasted pork, Dim Sum, and coffee for breakfast. That strange digest habit amused every tourists. But you should not miss trying Trang style's breakfast at any cafe' near your hotel. For visitors, there is a roasted pork festival held in September of every year. And probably buy some back home.

Watches are a beautiful thing. Certainly, they tell us the time - but aren't they so much more than that? replicas watches Through their watches, a person can express so much, and in a way it could be said:replicas watches Show me your watch and I'll tell you who you are.
