For the past few days, CNA ABC TV Channels have been telecasting documentaries such as this one, that feature Chinese exiles and their contributions.
Leaving aside political dimensions, these reflect the fact that Chinese have retained their cultural traditions wherever they go. This is very obvious from their China town's in different countries.
When working in Cambodia, I have personally seen their passion to retain their culture and traditions.
Although on a smaller scale, our own Indians (particularly those from Gujarat) who migrated/exiled to other countries have built their own Little India in countries such as Britain, the US and South Africa. I remember a few community establishments in South Africa.
Such establishments have a great potential in letting our youngsters to appreciate our great culture and traditions.
