Why do Malaysia and Indonesia hate Chinese?

Third, the influence of overseas Chinese exclusion forces. In Indonesia and Malaysia, Chinese have been severely discriminated against, and the situation of 6 million Chinese in Indonesia is particularly tragic. Indonesians regard Chinese culture as "drugs" and are extremely hostile to Chinese, forbidding them to use Chinese and forcing them to change their surnames. When people from China enter Indonesia, they will find that the customs declaration still states in black and white that China publications are equivalent to drugs and firearms, and it is forbidden to bring them into the country. Many China people who travel or do business in Indonesia also have special experiences. Immigration officials are always making things difficult, and finally they have to spend money to eliminate disasters in order to get through smoothly. More than 50 laws in Indonesia contain discriminatory provisions, which are not good for Chinese. The most serious thing is that China people's identity cards all have special numbers, which is like branding an indelible mark on their foreheads, bringing them lifelong bad luck. In Indonesia and Malaysia, Chinese children are often restricted by the quota system of ethnic schools, and many talented Chinese children are not admitted to universities despite their excellent grades.

Culturally, the main reason is that Chinese are not fully integrated into the local society. On the one hand, some countries still have some imperfections in formulating social reasonable immigration policies. On the other hand, Chinese businessmen are also lacking in actively integrating into the local society. China people's social characteristics determine that they are easy to be isolated overseas. Coupled with the differences in language and culture, they are not easy to integrate into the local society.

First, they lack a sense of cultural identity with the local society, only pay attention to their own business conditions, and pay little attention to the overall development of their communities and the economic interests of other ethnic groups. Second, Chinese businessmen still lack the awareness of cross-cultural management, are not used to decentralization, and do not trust foreign managers. On the contrary, Japanese and Korean enterprises in Europe dare to try cross-cultural management and can quickly integrate into the local society. Third, some overseas Chinese have low quality. At present, the quality of overseas Chinese in China is uneven, ranging from senior businessmen and overseas students to migrant workers who have sneaked abroad. A few people lack moral literacy, don't respect local social morality and customs, and even commit crimes, bribe officials, get to know the local underworld, and ask for trouble, which seriously affects the image of Chinese. Finally, overseas Chinese have a weak sense of modern citizenship, lack of autonomy, and cannot integrate into the local society. A closed and silent group is easily attacked by other ethnic groups.

This closed and inaction concept also leads to the aphasia of China society in the field of mass media discourse, and becomes the target of demonization of local mainstream media, thus leading to the distortion and marginalization of social image. The Solomon Islands incident can be seen, and so can Europe. Although other ethnic minorities are also vulnerable groups, they are good at using various means to protect themselves. Take ethnic minorities in Europe as an example. Moroccan immigrants and Turkish immigrants in Europe are very good at "making their own voices" and fighting for their rights and interests. The host government will naturally be inclined to them when considering minority policies. For another example, in Germany, the Japanese have Japanese TV stations funded by the German government.

Although the Chinese in Europe are hardworking, it may be due to cultural traditions. They are generally modest and silent, and put themselves in the position of "vulnerable groups". When European governments consider minority policies, the interests of Chinese are mostly at the bottom. As Chinese, Filipino Chinese generally have a high social and economic status, but they are unwilling to participate in politics directly. They safeguard their economic interests by providing financial support to politicians. Because they know very well that China people's political powerlessness and vacuum directly lead to economic trampling by others. Therefore, Chinese people generally need spokespersons who can convey their wishes and safeguard their rights and interests in the local society.
