The Hakka Diaspora | The history and migrations of Hakka  

Thanks for explaining the Hakkas. I renewed my fascination with the Hakkas. I’m am born and raised in New York City. My father is from Hubei and my mother is 100% Cantonese Hakka but born and raised in Tsingtao in Shantung. I don’t know much about my father’s people but while I never learned how to speak Hakka but am heavily influenced by my mother’s Hakka heritage. Experiencing my mother’s bravery, hardworking, and kindness, I am proud to be half Hakka.

Thanks you very much for a wonderful and well researched video. Much appreciated.

So cool! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much for the beautiful video. I feel so touched watching it.

I'm hakka origin. My dad left Kwantung, Shantou via Dabu Meixian in the 1930ish landed in Singapore then Malacca (Malaysia). I'm longing to visit my dad's home town in Fuzaitang one day and make a video of the past history. There wasn't any civil war between the hakka and cantonese people during that time that led the Qing gov to intervene. It was the religious (christianity) uprising called the Taiping Rebellion against the Qing Dynasty with the help of some foreign power in 1950-1964 (14 years war) over land distribution issue. The Qing gov were better equipped and also with the support of some foreign power on their side to defeat the Hakka led forces. Your video some how interesting as I recalled how my dad told us his story when he first landed in Nanyang at the age of just 14 with my uncle. almost everyone that left for overseas were of Hakka origin but some had already adopted cantonese, hokkien culture and their dialects as they lost their own culture. The Punti people (Kwangtung and Fujian people don't leave their prevaleged lands).

Ngai Hakka nyin❤❤❤

It is very educational for me as a diluted Hakka, and thank you very much for your works on Hakka history. Sincerely Sar Kong

so what is the meaning of the word ngai? It's on the wall. Must be significant. My wife was born in Vietnam. They are supposed to be hakka decent. Their ethnic name in Vietnam is ngai ppl!!!. And now I see it on the wall of hakka museum!!! Mind-blowing. 😮😮

YanYan, fantastic history of the Hakka people. However, the background music is a little too loud that, at times, drowned out your narratives.

Love the content do you have much information on the Hakka people that went to East Timor and where can i find information to trace my roots im a Leong.

Hakkas are the industrious type Govinda tells me of a community who forms part of the Malaysian Chinese populace. His spouse is a typical Hakka who gives her Tamil husband five kids.

Anyone know where is liemzhou district in Fujian.?

Why the distracting music which drowns the narrative?

Can you describe 8 county in Fujian province?

My grandparents city..MEIZHOU…what about you yanyan are you HAKKA NGIN??.

I am a Taipo hakka but I do not know which area my ancestor came from. Can anyone enlighten me please? I am an elderly woman living in Denmark.

Cantonese also practice double burial for many centuries. There was no conflict between Hakka and Cantonese people in Zengcheng County east of Guangzhou. They got on well and today half of the population of Zengcheng are Hakka. Because of this Zengcheng was one of the most prosperous of the migration areas of the PRD and sent far fewer people overseas. Many Zengcheng Hakka migrated to Malaya. You can learn a lot of the history of Cantonese by studying the Hakka.
