Thanks for bringing to the world the tale of Hang Li Poh, which today has been largely accepted as more legend than historical fact. According to my research, the Baba Nyonyas trace their ancestry to the Hokkien seafarers from Fujian Province. The seafarers (all men) established satellite families by marrying the locals. While they were able to stamp their culture on the locals, one thing they are unable to pass on - because they are often absent - is the Hokkien language. While the men were away to run their mercantile trade, the women they marry raised their children in the local language, resulting in an entire group speaking a creolized Malay known as Baba Malay, a dialect of Malay peppered with words in Hokkien. They are the Melaka Peranakans. About a century after, a different wave of Hokkien settlers arrived. With the fall of the Ming Dynasty, and the upheavals surrounding the arrival of the Manchu's Qing Dynasty in Fujian Province, the Hokkiens voted with their feet and became 17th century "boat people". Unlike the mercantile seafarers, these refugees arrived with womenfolk, children and livestock. As they were numerous in numbers, they were able to keep their language. But not their cooking. Cut off from China, they improvised and created their own cuisine. They are the seed of Hokkien language in Penang. Depending on where in Fujian Province they come, they speak a Hokkien dialect with Malay loanwords. The third wave of Hokkien immigrants arrived in the 18th century. They are regarded as the latecomers (in Hokkien, Sinkhaek, meaning new guests), to differentiate them from the oldcomers (the Laokhaek, the old guests). The Oldcomers are the Peranakan, who by then have established themselves in the local mercantile trade. They are the Old Money, and this is reflected in the flourishing of their culture, particularly in the 2nd half of the 18th century, fueled by prosperity from tin mining. I am working against the tide to prevent Penang Hokkien from dying out completely, at least within my lifetime, with free online lessons on Memrise, as well as free online dictionary www.penang-traveltips.com/dictionary/index.htm and Facebook group.

My grandpa (hokkien speaker, i did not meet because of the khmer genocide) probably arrived a century ago in Cambodia, never taught my mom and her sister his native language, i'm still wondering why, laziness, not enough time to teach or don't know how to or maybe it was way to erase his past and start a new life. The only thing i got is a picture from him. Many of us cambodians have a void, a disconnection with our ancestors due to our country's past, luckily i still have family ties there unlike others.

Really liked the video! Thanks for giving the world knowledge about my culture. And yes, sadly the hokkien language is indeed dying in my home country of Malaysia. I can see that a lot of my friends choose to communicate in mandarin over their mother tongue which is mainly caused by schools which strictly discourages our mother tongue dialect and also the lack of application in real life where their parents would choose to speak mandarin at home. It's actually a very big problem but people tend not to notice it. Anyways, there is a reason why hokkien fried mee and hokkien prawn mee came to be. Hokkien people really love dark soy sauce (thicker version of soy sauce and also know as kicap manis in Malaysia and Indonesia) which is very noticeable if you're familiar with hokkien cuisine. So, someone decided to stir fry thick noodles with lard, pork and dark soy sauce. Given the chance, you can try out char kway teow which is another hokkien cuisine which is similar to the hokkien fried mee but with a different type of noodle. As for hokkien prawn mee, hokkien people usually live near coastal area which gives them access to a lot of seafood like prawns which ultimately lead to the creation of hokkien prawn mee

In the context of early Singapore (circa 1950s -1980s). Live on the streets were controlled by gangs of majority Hokkiens and which were categorized to by the police as illegal secret societies. They were used by the merchants as muscle or as backing during a dispute resolution negotiations. (Most of the Senior officers and police detectives are Baba (Peranakan Chinese)and policemen in uniform are majority Malay. The Teochews businessmen (who have the monopoly on the fresh seafood trade) for protection, would prefer to hobnob with the police inspectors). Also most Taoist Temples are run by the Hokkiens who are also temple mediums. These temples survived on donations which could be substantial.

Fun fact: 马六甲 if pronounced in Hokkien is exactly like Malacca (Ma' Lak' Ka) It is a sad situation that this culture and language is dying out and to see it dying away is the most painful. In Malaysia one of the reasons people stop speaking Hokkien is too because of the instillment of Hokkien is a rude language and the dominance of Cantonese due to local radio stations are all Cantonese based. There are Cantonese even said that if one does not know Cantonese that person is not Chinese. This again impacted the Hokkien community and is really sad to see. The fact being Hokkien preserved the oldest form of Chinese is very insulting at least for me

Thailand's Chinese mainly migrate from Chaozhou, and Hokkian mainly to SG. Thailand's greatest king was King Taksin. His Taechew parent migrated to Thailand during the Manchu Chein Long Dynasty. King Taksin took back Thailand after failing to the Burmese. In return, the Thai general was betrayed by beheaded Taksin. But that cannot stop the Chinese power. Chinese take control of the economy wherever they settle. The Chinese way of life is hard work, soft power, and modesty. Americans should learn from the Chinese principle. To get healthy and wealthy, the only way is hard work, not hard war.

Thank you for you fascinating podcast series, especially this mini series on the Hokkien people. I would like to make a comment on the heritage of the first Ly king in VN though. I know that there are credible historical sources that point to Ly That To's Hokkien heritage but there is also evidence that directly contradicts that claim. This is a debatable point. So for the benefit of the doubt, I would have preferred that you'd left Ly Thai To out of this or at the very least, mentioned that he was "possibly" of Hokkien origin.

@ChinaHistoryPodcast

Yeah, seems strange and by no means is this documented as far as I know. But the original "ketchup" in America didn't have a tomato base as it does now. The tomatoes were added later to this "mystery sauce" that may or may not have come from the famous Hokkien Gwee Sauce. Enough has been said over the years about this possible connection where I thought it was worth mentioning in this episode. Thanks Malvolio.

Thanks for the presentation. However, I need to point out a few etymological inaccuracies. Hope you don't mind. (1) Hokkien is 'Fujian' in Mandarin, and not 'Fuzhou'. 'Fuzhou' actually translates into Hokkien as HockChiew and refers to another dialect group. A representative dish is HockChew fishballs. (2) Also, 'Singapore' is derived from Sanskrit, and not Chinese. The Hokkien pronunciation sounds closer than the Mandarin pronunciation because the people who did the transliteration were literate in Hokkien. (3) Also, you forgot to mention Amoy Hokkien, one of the three recognized main branches of Hokkien. Amoy Hokkien is the so-called standard variant of Hokkien, spoken in Malacca and Singapore. The Penang and Medan versions lean more towards the Chio Chiu variant. (4) According to the Oxford English Dictionary (last time I checked), 'Ketchup' derives from 'gie chap', 'gie' meaning gourd. The gourd here refers to the tomato. Please don't trust everything you read on Google or Wiki. And help me report the inaccurate findings to Google. Thanks.

Thanks a bunch for the info! Much appreciated and it's always nice to get some real local knowledge and expertise to add to these simple introductions I present. Google's just a search engine, not a website containing articles and info. It's useful for tracking down nice sources. Wiki is useful to me for checking dates, some names and obtaining Chinese characters for certain terms. I feel it's a bit arrogant of you to imply this effort of mine was derived from some Wikipedia entry. Give me at least a little credit. And the OED is not the last word as far as derivations. I don't think those guys know the exact beginnings of ketchup any more than the next scholar. But with time travel, one day we may be able to find out. I'll have to go back and re-listen to the episode re: your point (1). I could have sworn I said what you said. Thanks again.

@@ChinaHistoryPodcast Guess I was wrong about the origins of 'ketchup' all along! I don't think this term is very popular nowadays, but to those who know it, it refers to a sweet sauce used with chee cheong fun (diam cheonn 甜酱). Alternatively, it refers to another sweet sauce made from papayas or sweet potato. To think I actually told someone to add tomatoes to their sweet sauce. Oh well. With respect to point(1), 24:53 . Almost drove me nuts trying to find this part! I don't know of anyone who uses ketchup to mean fish brine but I don't go to the market very often... If you say that people would think you were referring to 'kway chap', a stereotypically Teochew dish. I think Taiwanese cuisine has diverged from Hokkien cuisine quite a bit but one famous dish that both cultures share is 'Lor Bak Png'. In the Taiwanese South they call it 'Bi Go'. I'm not sure how Taiwanese cuisine in LA looks like but I've heard that the Taiwanese bubble tea in California is causing quite a bit of controversy. Perhaps you should do a review of LA restaurants to grow your channel.

Hokkien 'Har' Mee actually doesn't make any sense - to me anyway. That's because you've mixed two different dialects in that 3-word name, i.e. Hokkien and Cantonese. In Hokkien it should be called, Hokkien 'Hay' Mee. In Cantonese, it's called, Fookien 'Har' Mein. I'm Malaysian Hokkien and I speak both Hokkien and Cantonese fluently.
