What is the aboriginal population in Dongguan?

According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics of China, by 2020, the permanent population of Dongguan will be 820 1.600. However, because the concept of "indigenous population" is not clearly defined, it is impossible to accurately answer the number of indigenous population in Dongguan. Indigenous population refers to the local residents who have lived in a certain area for a long time, with the characteristics of being born and bred and inheriting local culture. Due to the complex historical and cultural background of Dongguan, involving many ethnic groups, migrants and floating population, the concept of "Dongguan aborigines" is not clear. Generally speaking, Dongguan has a profound historical and cultural background, which also attracts a large number of migrants and floating population, forming a diversified social and cultural environment.
