The origin of the word "overseas Chinese"

Overseas Chinese are China citizens designated to live abroad. "China" and "overseas Chinese" are clear in terms of the meaning of one word. "Hua" is the ancient name of China, and "Overseas Chinese" means to live as a stranger or guest. In ancient China, people who lived in other countries were called "overseas Chinese" and "overseas Chinese". With the rapid increase in the number of people living abroad, the words "Hua" and "overseas Chinese" have been linked together to address Chinese living abroad.

in p>1878, Chen Lanbin, the envoy of the Qing dynasty to the United States, called China people living abroad "expatriates" in his memorial. "Expatriate" has become a special term. In 1883, Zheng Guanying used the word "overseas Chinese" in his memorial to Li Hongzhang. In 194, the Foreign Affairs Department of the Qing government mentioned in a petition to set up a consulate overseas that "setting up a consulate overseas has little expenditure, and overseas Chinese have benefited a lot." Since then, the word "overseas Chinese" has generally become a special term for China people living abroad.

Overseas Chinese do not include people who travel and visit abroad, workers and technicians sent by the government to other countries to assist in construction, public servants sent by the state to foreign countries and international students studying abroad. People of China descent who have joined or acquired foreign nationality cannot be regarded as overseas Chinese.

According to China International Migration Report (215), there are more than 6 million overseas Chinese living in 198 countries and regions.
