Description

Dragons on the Long White Cloud: The making of Chinese New Zealanders by Manying Ip.'The Chinese have been in New Zealand for over 130 years, from the days of the Otago gold-rushes. Since than, this largely self-contained community has flourished and established itself successfully in its country of adoption. It became ;the Model Minority' - law-abiding, hardworking, humble and inoffensive. But with its distant cultural origins, how has this highly visible racial minority survived in a totally different world that often discriminated against them? And how has the significant Asian immigration of the 1990s affected the descendants of the earlier settlers? The book has light to medium general wear with some de lamination on the back cover but the book remains tight and bright.
