Who are the xinyimin, and how are they different from their predecessors? How do their impacts differ from previous generations of Chinese migrants, especially against the backdrop of a rising China? What is Beijing’s policy towards the Chinese overseas in general and towards xinyimin in particular?
Professor Leo Suryadinata (ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute) will start this discussion by sharing his work on the rise of China and xinyimin in maritime Southeast Asia. Dr. Neo Peng Fu (Confucius Institute, Nanyang Technological University) will then speak about the Confucius Institutes and the teaching of Mandarin in Southeast Asia.
