The Chinese have never shy away from emigration ever since the gold rush days.
They can be found from New York, USA to Johannesburg, South Africa.
They have not been known to accept their fate.
They're better know to take fate in their own hand and strike out a new destiny in a distance land.
Their hardwork, perseverance and survival instinct makes them adaptable from Indonesia to India.
Just like the Jews, the Chinese also have a similar disapora all over the world summarised neatly in the phrase 四海为家.
