[BREAKING!] Minister Sim Ann: Singaporean Chinese Are Not Overseas Chinese

[Sango123]

It is tough to translate properly. We are not 华侨. We are 华裔

华侨是指在国外定居的具有中国国籍的自然人

现代华裔是指定居在国外的华人已经取得中国以外的国籍者（也称为x籍华人）和在国外出生，根据出生国的法律而拥有外国国籍者。也就是说从法律上说他们已经不是中国公民。但是从血统上说他们是华人的后代（后裔）。

didn't china say that as long as your race/ethinicity is chinese, you are a china citizen? Welcome back

No, CCP r resisting new immigrants for a fear of de-brainwashing its populace hence destabilising itself.

That sounds like a desperate bid to get Chinese all over the world to stand on their side which I, for one, am not going to do.

its incorrect to state 华人 r born in China. this makes up most ethnic chinese here who r born n bred in SG.

This 华人 definition is China's definition standard. Do not take this seriously, I am merely focusing on learning Mandarin by China's standards. Please ignore it if you are not agreeable.

There should be a standard to distinguish CCP Chinese and the rest of the Chinese

Minister Sim ann is absolutely right and I support her statement 100%. As do most other Singaporeans.

There have been calls to "oversea chinese" by CCP regime tiongland, to be loyal to tiongland and see it as the "motherland". Obviously as an attempt to subvert other nations by stirring race and using it to CCP regime's advantage. There are indeed people who fall for it like dickson yeo and philip chan.

Singapore is the motherland of Singaporeans and it is the only country we should be loyal to. Anyone who claim tiongland is the "motherland" are CCP propagandists attempting to undermine Singapore's independence and sovereignty.

Worries grow in Singapore over China’s calls to help ‘motherland’​

Already, there has been evidence of the Chinese Communist Party’s attempts to manipulate political activity among Chinese populations in countries like Canada, the United States and Australia.

And with ethnic Chinese constituting nearly 75 per cent of Singapore’s population of 5.6 million, some scholars and former diplomats worry that this island nation could be an especially tantalising target for the Chinese government’s influence efforts.

“For us, it is an existential issue; the stakes are extremely high,” said Mr Bilahari Kausikan, a former permanent secretary of Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and one of the most outspoken voices in the country on the subject of Chinese interference.
