Chinese Expatriates - Returning and Re-emigration

Returning and Re-emigration

With People's Republic of China's growing economic strength and the influence on the world, many overseas Chinese have began to migrate back to China even though many Mainland Chinese millionaires are considering emigrating out of the nation for better opportunities.

With China being the second largest economy in the world, this trend is expected to rise even more in the future as China's vigorous economy is poised to surpass the United States in the upcoming decade. For instance, in the case of Indonesia and Burma, political and ethnic strife has cause a significant number of people of Chinese origins to re-emigrate. Other Southeast Asian countries with large Chinese communities such as Malaysia, the economic rise of People's Republic of China has made it an attractive destination for many Malaysian Chinese to re-emigrate. As the Chinese economy opens up, Malaysian Chinese act as a bridge because many Malaysian Chinese are educated in the United States or Britain but can also understand the Chinese language and culture making it easier for potential entrepreneurial and business to be done between the people among the two countries.

In the Philippines, increasing numbers of Chinese-Filipino entrepreneurs and professionals have flocked to their ancestral homeland to partake of business and employment opportunities opened up by China's poised emergence as a global economic superpower.
