Aquino's Chinese ancestry fuels anger in Beijing

[PIace of Space]

Yes you're absolutely right, I don't have the ability to insult you because your abilities to insult yourself far surpasses than mine. By the way your english is enough to give cancer to Shakespeare.

Don't insult youselves, you can just show your weakness. Shakespeare is important for you, to me it is soso. Chinese is a pro-technology language, all science terms, nouns have Chinese version. I know, for a lot of no-English speaking countries, they can only use English version books of chemical, physics, economy etc. I am sad you have to experience the thing. Without English, you are illiterate loser who can't even find a job. The situation is differnt here, for example, the boss of Xiaomi can't speak a full sentence of English, it doen't impact him creating the fast growing cell phone company.

I could care less if he has Chinese ancestry or not, although his face look rather mix, but if we have a war with the Philippines, we are going after his head.

 

[Phukimak]

But those Chinese do too well for themselves which get lots of hostility from the natives , kinda like Jews were I Europe.

Actually , during late 80s and 90s a lot of black money come from hong kong triad, collaborate with SEA Chinese to loundry their black money.. The most notable group in Indonesia with their relationship with hongkong Triad is the 9 dragon group.. With aguan as the head of the dragon and tommy winata as right hand ( tommy winata also well known as executors of many project that belongs to 9 dragon group)
Curently aguan has retired and tommy winata established his own group ( Artha graha group ) and with his group Artha graha has close relation with chinese elite in Guangdong province..
So actually SEA Chinese have a deep relationship with mainland, because many of us still have family in mainland

BEIJING, China – The Chinese ancestry of Philippine President Benigno Aquino III, whose family hails from China's Fujian province, has fueled anger against the Philippines here in Beijing.

In a forum with Filipino and Thai journalists, we asked Shi Ding, deputy editor in chief of top Chinese news website Huanqiu.com, what statement from the Philippines had angered the Chinese the most in the South China Sea dispute.

Speaking through a translator, Shi cited no particular statement from the Philippine government, but singled out a person who, in a way, is one of their own: "It's your president, President Aquino."

Shi said on Friday, June 26: "There are many statements...and also actions of his. And the most important thing, he actually has some Chinese blood. Because of his background, most of the Chinese people are very angry about what he says and what he does."

Aquino traces his roots to Hongjian village in China's Fujian province, which he visited in 2011. His mother, former President Corazon Cojuangco Aquino, came from the line of Chinese immigrant Co Yu Hwan, who moved to the Philippines in 1861.

Aquino's spokesman has cited the President's Chinese roots in downplaying the dispute over the South China Sea, which the Philippines claims as the West Philippine Sea.

Despite this, in 2013, Aquino would become the first president to approve bringing China to court over the maritime row.

China has viewed these arbitration proceedings as "unfriendly" on the part of the Philippines. (READ: China to PH: Friends avoid lawsuits)

'99.5%' vs Philippines

While Manila pursues this case, Shi said "99.5%" of his website's users think the Philippines "uses many inflammatory words" on the maritime row.

He added that "more than 95%" of the users of Huanqiu.com, which is affiliated with China's Global Times newspaper, think that the Philippines does these things "because of the United States' support."

Shi spoke on Friday before 8 journalists from Filipino and Thai news websites, including Rappler, in a forum sponsored by the Chinese foreign ministry.

His comments show rising emotions against Manila in Beijing.

After all, the South China Sea dispute is "the most popular topic now in China," Shi said.

Zhou Zhixing, chief editor of Chinese news website Gongshi.com, also said his website adopts the Chinese government's stance on the South China Sea dispute.

He said the Chinese, however, have different opinions on the issue. "The readers would have more reasonable thinking, and would not think that it's all the responsibility of the United States," Zhou said.

In any case, Chinese editors agreed it is the media's role to help in resolving the maritime row.


Shi cited a visit of Huanqiu.com personnel to Vietnam "to help the Chinese people know the true Vietnam." This, despite the two countries' dispute also over the South China Sea.

"We think it's the media's responsibility to help solve the problem and build a more friendly relationship with neighboring countries," he said.

Aquino's Chinese ancestry fuels anger in Beijing

Aquino is no more than "Chinese" than many Vietnamese in Nothern Vietnam are.

The Chinese look at paternal bloodline, instead of maternal ones to which Aquino belongs.

The Chinese pay only attention to ones' surnames.

Aquino is not Chinese,

he doesn't think like Chinese a bit,

and certainly he doesn't act Chinese a bit

confucius ideals and traditional Chinese culture and values do not mean a bit to this guy.

he is a typical pinoy. that's whom he is.

Well, not in Indonesia case of course..............

Even in Malaysia which has huge percentage of Chinese ethnic, the dominant power is still on Malays. But it is likely quite true for other SEA countries like Singapore (Lee family) Thailand (Thaksin), Philippine (Aquino).

no, you're wrong. i've heard that Gus Dur acknowledge himself as a Chinese descendant.

 

[Speeder 2]

Correct. In the end of the day ancestry is secondary to nationality. For example, the current Commander of the United States Pacific Command is Admiral Harry Harris, who is of Japanese ancestry. He may have Japanese ancestry, but he is an American first and foremost. Loyalty is to the United States , none to Japan, his ancestral homeland.

Adm. Harris talking to a group of JMSDF officers (in Japanese language, he is fluent in Japanese)

Make no mistakes here!

Harris is not of "Japanese" ancestry. He by and large is of White European ancestry, who just speaks fluent Japanese because of his mother.

His deeper loyalty towards America is mostly because he identifies himself almost exclusively as "genetically and culturally a White American with European ancestry", apart from his American nationality.

It is because the offspring of racial mixings somehow mostly identify themselves, both genetically and culturally, with their paternal lines. eg Obama, this Harris, Aquino, etc.

They seldom identify with their maternal lines. That's probably why that since ancient times when tribe A conquered tribe B, they killed all the men and took away all the women, becasue they knew, by experiences, that their offspring would identify themselves as tribe A instead of tribe B. The same with Harris.

Yup, right, I guest you are right, Gusdur (Abdurrahman Wahid), which is Indonesian forth President is a Chinese descendant. Even his wife looks Chinese even though Javanese.

The guy was born in Yokosuka, Japan and has a Japanese mother. How could he have more European in him than Japanese?

His mother is Japanese, was raised as a child to speak Japanese as his first language, English second. His father just happens to be of White European stock, in fact, his father of English, German, and other Anglo stock, but categorized as 'White American'. Harris visited Japan plenty of times , through the influence of his Japanese mother, learned not only the language, but the culture, as well as has family in Japan.

There is a reason why he was selected first as Admiral of the US 7th Pacific Fleet, and then later as Commander of the US Pacific Command. To bridge the relations between the Japanese Self Defense Forces and the United States Armed Forces.

The guy was born in Yokosuka, Japan and has a Japanese mother. How could he have more European in him than Japanese?

Good point, @Peter C . I should note that Admiral Harris had relatives (and plenty of them) who served with honor and distinction in the Nihon Kaigun (The Imperial Japanese Navy).

Many Chinese don't know this nor do we care about it.

 

[Sanchez]

A lot of PDF SE Asian Chinese other than Lux, have illusion on PRC. They keep on licking up PRC members like no body and some PRC members keep belittling the oversea Chinese.

If not of Taksin, how can Thai land shifted its position so close to China, leaving the USA in cold.

This Nihonjin keep telling China has no relationship with oversea Chinese. His own country hole up Nisei Fujimori for 9 years.

The Thai emperor is of Chinese origin. The guy Nihonjin is a descendant of some Jap war criminals like the connection of Abe. What's the problem with your SG? It seems that you are the one twisting Chinese facts the most in the forum

 

[Aepsilons]

An online troll who is too stupid to understand basic english thinks being racist is a good thing. You're an embarrassment to whole Chinese race and China. Go kill yourself or something.

Just ignore the troll. If you notice he is a remanifestation; the troll's join date states he joined yesterday, yet we know he's been posting here for at least 5 months.

@waz @Horus @WebMaster @Jango @Hakan , @Hu Songshan --- Sirs, can we please ban this troll named @Place Of Space. This troll is doing nothing but inciting flame wars in threads that are quite intellectual based. I have posted intellectual posts in this thread and would like to maintain discourse with the learned folks in the thread, but this cannot go when trolls like @Place Of Space keep on coming and posting and ruining the thread.

Thank You.

Both Lux and this guy are despicable racists, and both have the same IQ that of a spatula. Its not even fun to insult them for their racist and ignorant BS anymore lol.

Just report their racist and inciteful posts to the mods. Don't entertain the troll, just ignore and report. Report, Report, and Report again.
