It’s interesting that the same people regurgitate the same old complaints whenever Chinese are mentioned. Yawn.

Did anyone actually read all the article?

Oh, and I went to the big market yesterday. It isn’t all Chinese at all. Majority are locals.

As the article says, if you bothered to read it, it’s (Chinese migration) been happening for centuries and will continue to be that way.
Long after most of us are distance “long nose” memories.

The article is from the South China Morning Post based in Hong Kong.

Should we be surprised they put a positive spin on Chinese migration?

Each to their own but personally I don't fall for that propaganda.

It's been happening for centuries, but not at this scale.....

The government aims for 2.000.000 in 2030. That's 1 Chinese for 8 Cambodians. Imagine what that kind of immigration would do to your home country.

Every Cambosian is Chinese, just ask around at Chinese new year!

Not a problem for anyone.
Are you personally getting any problems from the Chinese?

Have you been to Western Europe? Sure it has it's own problems but for the most part people find a way of getting on with their lives.
Some will point to every negative stereotypical news article as proof that it doesn't work but for the most part people are just trying to improve their lives. Unfortunately the poorest in any society will always feel the effects of mass immigration first and most painfully.
Emmigration/Immigration has been going on since the first peoples walked out of Africa or since Adam and Eve, take your pick.
It seems that the poor in Cambodia need to look elsewhere for somebody to blame.

And remember folks " the revolution is just a t-shirt away"

No, not really. Bit I live out in the countryside, and more important, in the big scheme of things my life/experience in Cambodia doesn't matter. I'm a stranger in Strangeland myself.

I just believe it isn't a good idea to import too many immigrants from the same background into a (small) country. Those won't blend in easily, and will be a society within a society for two or three generations. It's an issue Europe has increasingly been facing since the 60's and many people feel uncomfortable about that.

I am from Western Europe. Immigration is major issue there, and one of the reasons Brexit happened.....

Here the issues with immigration are very different. There's no level playing field. The poor in Cambodia are f*cked. They are not protected by their own government, the government doesn't enforce laws if you give them a few bucks under the table, there is no decent education for all, so there's large amounts of Cambodians unable to compete with the immigrants. They are simply a walk over, and will be pushed aside.
