Prior to 1975 the ethnic Chinese population was about 5.3% of the Vietnamese population. Between 1975 and 1980 it was reduced to about 2%, primarily through expulsion from Vietnam by the Vietnamese government.
“Prior to 1975 the ethnic Chinese population was about 5.3% of the Vietnamese population. Between 1975 and 1980 it was reduced to about 2%, primarily through expulsion from Vietnam by the Vietnamese government.”
Yes, and they went everywhere across Asia, from Sigapore, to Thailand, to Hong Kong, to Malaysia, to Taiwan and elsewhere where there were large ethnic Chinese populations in Asia, and yes “many” became part of the refugees that made it to the U.S., but even then it did not comprise “most” of the refugees. The vast majority were ethic Vietnamese who (1) had sided with the U.S., (2) had been part of the South Vietnamese government or military forces, (3) politically active and opposed to the Communists, and (4) just did not want to live under the Communists.
Again, “many” does not comprise “most”.
