Abstract Malaysia is a multi-racial country where about a quarter of the population are ethnic Chinese. Arguably, Malaysia is also the only country outside of Greater China to have a ‘complete’ Chinese education track from primary to higher education. The Malaysia higher education system, consisting of both public and private higher education institutions, has five private higher education institutions that can be considered as ‘Chinese community-based’. These institutions were established by various interest groups in the Chinese community with seemingly different purposes. Hence, based on interviews with 23 participants, ranging from institutional leaders, administrators, mid-level academic managers and academic staff across three ‘Chinese community-based’ institutions, this paper explores the identities of these ‘Chinese community-based’ institutions. Using the concept of ‘roots’ (根) as an analytical lens, this paper illustrates three distinctive identities of these institutions which can be described as the ethnically proud (寻根问祖), the accommodator (落地生根) and the uprooted (失根群族). The understanding of these different identities illuminated the fact that there are subtle but crucial differences even across the three selected ‘Chinese community-based’ higher education institutions in Malaysia. More importantly, this diversity has crucial implications for policymaking in the governance of higher education institutions, positioning and branding of these institutions, as well as understanding of educational development of the Chinese diaspora outside of Greater China.

This article seeks to explain the transnational development of Maoism in the attempt to legitimise the Cultural Revolution and the 1967 Hong Kong Riots to Britain’s ethnic Chinese populace. Based primarily on a survey of ethnic Chinese in Britain undertaken by the Hong Kong government in 1967, both the British and Hong Kong governments were forced to respond to the transnational expansion of Maoism, transmitted by the People’s Republic of China and embraced by certain members of Britain’s Chinese community who faced inequality and discrimination under British rule. This Maoist agitation in turn forced Britain to commit to the welfare of its Chinese community and foster the idea of a Hong Kong identity that was distinctive from Maoism.

AbstractThis report examines the experiences of the Chinese community in St. John’s, Newfoundland, prior to Confederation with Canada in 1949. It argues that before Confederation, life for the Chinese in St. John’s was lonely, filled with tedious drudgery, and alienating. It was not until Newfoundland’s union with Canada in 1949 and eventual changes in immigration law in 1967 that potential for a meaningful future for both themselves and their families took hold. These political changes eventually allowed the Chinese in Newfoundland to become an official part of the social fabric of Newfoundland and validated their cultural traditions as ethnic Chinese.

Abstract: We examined the coverage of ethnic Chinese in The Toronto Star and the Vancouver Sun from 1970 to 1990. Coverage and the diversity of stories grew dramatically. However, the largely positive slant of most 1970 stories was later balanced by neutral and negative coverage. The reportage slant changed partly because cultural stories were augmented by crime and (increasingly negative) immigration stories. The decline of "stereotypically positive'' stories may also mark the increasing integration of the Chinese community and their coverage into the mainstream. Résumé: Nous avons éxaminé les reportages sur les chinois dans le Toronto Star et le Vancouver Sun de 1970 à 1990. Les reportages et la diversité des nouvelles ont beaucoup augmenté. Par contre, le biais plutôt positif des histoires des années 70 a par la suite cédé place à des reportages neutres ou négatifs. Ce changement s'explique par le nombre croissant d'histoires ayant trait à des crimes ou à des situations d'immigration (de plus en plus négatives). Le déclin d'histoires positives stéréotypées marque aussi le début de l'intégration croissante de la communauté chinoise.
