Introduction: The New Chinese Migration to Southeast Asia

---

Since 1978, when the People’s Republic of China (PRC) re-opened the door to the world from which its people had been hermetically sealed for almost half a century, millions of Chinese have ventured out, in what has been
termed the “New Chinese Migration.” This contemporary global Chinese migration differs significantly from the “old.” Whereas the bulk of the “old” migration headed in the direction of the plantation economies of Southeast
Asia, the “new” is directed at the developed regions and nations, such as Europe, the United States, Canada, Australia and Japan. Similarly, whereas the old migration originated from “qiaoxiang” (diaspora villages) in the three southern coastal provinces of Guangdong, Fujian and Zhejiang, the new migration is much more dispersed in origin, especially in the inclusion of urban centers, resulting in talk of new types of “urban qiaoxiang.” And whereas the “old” came to be known under the metonym of the “coolie trade,” there is the prominence of student and professional migration within the “new.”
