Hm... Okay but I think many of the Chinese Indonesians moved there during the 17th century so China doesn't really feel obliged to help them (?) They aren't recent immigrants and they have their own subculture and dialect with Indonesian accent and slangs, which isn't found in China. They even...
I have to say that Chinese-Indonesians are not nationals of PRC. So unfortunately China does not have any obligations or responsibility to help them. It would be a nice gesture to do for ethnic Chinese but it would go against China's principles IMO.
His parents are Vietnamese? He does not even know them. Nobody has any information of his Vietnamese family when he was born. He was adopted as a 9 month old baby.
His German adoptive are the only parents he has ever known. Germany is the only country and identity he has ever known. He does not...
Excuse me but those are Chinese nationals.
Philipp Rosler is not a Vietnamese national. He's a German national with a German identity. So the analogy is kaput.
Importantly, Philipp Rosler, as his name implies, was adopted as a baby and brought up in a completely German household. He can't speak...
This is why they lack critical thought. It's about team size. I just find it ridiculous to discredit or downplay those athletes achievements, dedication, training and hardwork. It's like "HURRRR those athletes only got gold medals because they come from a country with high population, not...
Why is this something to be proud of? Phillip Rosler, or whatever he likes to call himself, overall doesn't identity as Vietnamese, and neither should you.
He was adopted by German parents when he was 9 months. So he can't read write speak or understand Vietnamese, his mindset is completely...
By "IT" superpower it's more like IT services ie call centres. Because when it comes to actual technology, patents, research, tech products etc China vastly outranks India's tier
They should keep piling more and more sand on reefs and designate one of them as a theme park island! It's a tribal jungle theme with cool tropical music and yummy treats like coconuts and mango pudding. It can be called Yēzi (椰子) Island!
Oh ok thanks
But how is this a stupid question. You're Vietnamese so you would know.
Do you prefer I consult with non-Vietnamese next time on Vietnamese issues? Next time I won't ask you then. I will deliberately have consversations about Vietnam with Chinese members and reject your inputs.
Uh ok yeah but I'm asking you, do you know if the Vietnamese shops with Chinese characters on it are owned by Hoa people or Kinh people? I am just curious because I thought Vietnamese can't read Hanzi. So I was thinking maybe they are Hoa owned shops?
I think the woman in the Australian flag Ao Dai is mixed race?
But yeah I do find Chinese people to be less servile. Like we are not sorry that we are Chinese.
Also @Viet I have a question.
You know like in these "Vietnamese" things or places and they put Chinese characters on there does it mean it's Hoa? Like you know in some pho shops I think they slap Chinese characters over everything to give it more of an "East Asian" and "exotic Asian" feel to...
But they didn't go to China, most ended up in Hong Kong, Macau, USA etc?
I read that Lee Kuan Yew the Singaporean PM once wanted Singapore to be like Saigon before Singapore became rich. But that was before the Fall of Saigon.
The Hoa were persecuted by the Vietnamese. I think they have a history of oppression and resentment in Vietnam, similar to Jews in Europe? Most of the Vietnamese boat people were ethnic Hoa.
The Jing community (ethnic Vietnamese in China) aren't successful by any means by the way. They were...
I think you might be right. Okay the Rooster Sauce (Huy Fong Foods, inc) founder is actually ethnic Chinese. His name is David Tran. But I think that doesn't count as a Southeast Asian product but more of an Asian American product because they operate in America (?).
Anyway I thought it was...
