<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 377619, member: 360&quot;]&quot;...The Straits Or Peranakani Chinese were Skilled Silversmiths who left mainland China in the late 19th century and settled in Burma, Indonesia Singapore etc....&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>I can tell you now that&#039;s incorrect. To be Peranakan, you have to be BORN IN INDONESIA AND SINGAPORE, or directly descended from people who were. That&#039;s what makes you STRAITS CHINESE. No Straits Chinese Peranakan ever migrated from China and set up shop and called themselves Peranakan. The real peranakan would spit at them if they did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
