200,000 refugees poured into China, and after being taken in, they were reluctant to leave, and even applied for naturalization.
Historically, China has maintained a relatively closed immigration policy. This is mainly due to two reasons: first, some immigrants in the past did not bring any benefit to the country, but instead caused social unrest and almost wiped out Chinese civilization.
Second, China's Han culture has always been very conservative and less receptive to foreign races and Xi.
China has always been a big country in East Asia, and it is difficult for foreign nations to be completely excluded, whether active or passive. The most recent large-scale migration was the "smuggling" of Vietnamese refugees in the late 70s of the last century.
So, what is the final destination of these people after the mass exodus?Today we will take a look at the turmoil in Vietnamese society.
Historically, Vietnam has been a staunch ally of our country and was even included in our territory for a time. However, during the Qing Dynasty, our country itself was already facing difficulties and could no longer protect this little brother.
As a result, Vietnam became a colony of the Western powers and was occupied by France. Although the French were driven out in the middle, Vietnam itself could not complete the unification in the later period, and it became a French colony again.
Despite the heroic resistance of the North Vietnamese people and their liberation, the South remained supported by the French.
Vietnam, a small country located in Southeast Asia, has become two camps due to historical reasons, which makes it impossible for the country to be unified and the people to form a whole. Under these circumstances, North Vietnam, with the help of the international community, began a war for national unification.
However, with the support of the United States in the South, the war became extremely difficult, and Vietnamese society fell into even greater chaos during the long period of turmoil. The unrest and turmoil in the country have left many Vietnamese people without a way out and have no choice but to flee their homeland and come to our country.
However, only a small percentage of Vietnamese came to our country during this period, and the real peak is still to come.
After the independence and reunification of Vietnam, the Vietnamese people once aspired to become the hegemon of Southeast Asia. However, Vietnam provoked our country on the Sino-Vietnamese border, which led to the deterioration of Sino-Vietnamese relations and the outbreak of the Sino-Vietnamese War.
Despite the rapid counterattack by the People's Liberation Army, hostility towards the Chinese in Vietnam has also deepened, resulting in more than 200,000 descendants of Chinese descent choosing to leave Vietnam and enter China through smuggling.
Most of the smugglers eventually arrived in Hong Kong, but some crossed the border to Guangxi and Yunnan provinces, with the situation particularly severe in Guangxi.
Although most of these Vietnamese are of Chinese descent, they are actually already Vietnamese citizens with Vietnamese nationality. We have not turned them away or repatriated them.
Instead, we provide land and shelter to help them live in our country as best we can. After all, although the Chinese are not very friendly to the foreign population, since they are here, we have a responsibility to take care of them.
What's more, most of these people are descendants of Chinese immigrants to Vietnam, and we can't ignore them. For those who are stuck in China, it should be clear that although these Vietnamese have Chinese roots, they have become Vietnamese citizens.
After living in China for a while, China** provided a lot of assistance and preferential treatment to these people, and their lives quickly settled down, even happier than in Vietnam.
After all, their lives in Vietnam are also very difficult. A few years later, relations between China and Vietnam gradually returned to normal. It stands to reason that these people should return to their hometowns, and they have long been looking forward to this day.
But surprisingly, when China put forward the idea and expressed its support, some people expressed "rejection".
Despite repeated urgings, they still chose to run away and did not seem to hear any reminders. Why is this happening?Because they have been living in China for the past few years, their lifestyle and Xi are no different from those of the Chinese.
In addition, both Vietnamese and Chinese are yellow**, black-eyed races, and it is easier to blend together. In addition, China has always been very tolerant of them. Many people even hope to obtain Chinese nationality as soon as possible and become truly "Chinese" completely.
Of course, the Chinese are friendly, but our country has always been cautious about the fact that the Vietnamese want to become Chinese nationals.
It's not that China** is unwilling to accept them, whether it's smugglers, non-high-tech talents, or investors. The truth is that Chinese nationality has historically been difficult to obtain, and both Asians and Westerners, as long as they are non-Chinese nationals, face the same difficulties.
In the United States, for example, millions of people may be admitted a year during peak immigration periods, while only a few thousand people in China have acquired citizenship each year under loose policies. Therefore, it is not easy to obtain Chinese nationality.
However, even so, many Vietnamese still choose to stay in China and apply for Chinese citizenship for a long period of time without interruption, and they are willing to give everything to achieve this goal.
China's attitude towards outsiders is sincere, otherwise these people would have left long ago. In the absence of nationality, they choose to stay in China, and many even obtain Chinese nationality after a long time together.
They are no different from Chinese mainland people, so it is natural for them to become Chinese citizens. To this day, many villages in Guangxi are still inhabited by "Vietnamese".
Although they were a little different in the past, they are now part of the Chinese family, just like you and me. Most of them caught up with China's rapid development era, and many lived in abundance.
Of course, after the material conditions improve, they also hope to be able to live happily in China on the spiritual level.
