chinese hv not be called the "jews of the east" for nothing bro!!...n this can be taken both as a compliment r a slur...
what i find more of interest though is that the chinese in Phils n Thailand over the centuries hv been more proactive in integrating wif the 'locals'...even to the pt of assimilation at times...u do not c this in other sea ctries like indo n malaysia...
