    WEN Wei & WONG Danny Tze Ken The Development of Cantonese Chinese Community in the Klang Valley, 1860-1941 The Development of Cantonese Chinese Community in the Klang Valley, 1860-1941 WEN Wei, WONG Danny Tze Ken* Department of History, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Malaya Abstract This article traces the development process of the Cantonese community in the Klang Valley. As indicated in the local sources of the Chinese community history in this region, the Cantonese group, among other Chinese dialect groups, contributed significantly to the early development of Kuala Lumpur. They also rose as a dominant economic group among the Chinese community in the Klang Valley from the late 19th century to the mid 20th century. The Cantonese of Kuala Lumpur gradually replaced the Hakka group and emerged as the dominant group until the 1930s in both economic and social domains. In the process, the personal resources of group members, the organizational structure, the hierarchy within the Cantonese leadership, and the gender ratio were the four primary elements that impacted the growth of the Cantonese community. The Cantonese business elite took advantage of new economic opportunities such as the Chinese banking and real estate development. When the Chinese tin mining industry began to decline in 1914, these new business ventures sustained the overall Chinese economic system in the Klang Valley from the 1910s to 1920s. Along with the surge of the Cantonese economic strength, the hierarchical differentiation within the Cantonese community emerged, and some business elites started to shift their loyalty to the British. On the other hand, the Cantonese social elites from labour and middle classes actively participated in the political movement related to Mainland China.

  • AESTHETICS of SUPER-DIVERSITY: the CANTONESE ANCESTRAL CLAN BUILDING AS a SOCIAL INTEGRATION PLATFORM
    Finisterra, LV(113), 2020, pp. 45 ‑62 ISSN: 0430-5027 doi: 10.18055/Finis17553 Artigo AESTHETICS OF SUPER-DIVERSITY: THE CANTONESE ANCESTRAL CLAN BUILDING AS A SOCIAL INTEGRATION PLATFORM Rachel Chan Suet Kay1 ABSTRACT – In the quest to develop cities for the long run, the debate is whether to retain elements of culture or to reinvent such spaces for new uses. Cultural heritage preser- vation thus becomes an issue in urban planning. Heritage sites and buildings are currently facing a great threat from new urban development particularly in developing countries including Malaysia. Nonetheless, there are those who argue for the preservation of local identity in the face of urban development. They claim that within the Kuala Lumpur City Centre, there are areas rich in diversity of identity, and these should be made more visible. This paper uses the case study of Chan See Shu Yuen, a historically significant Cantonese ancestral clan association building which houses both tangible and intangible cultural heri- tage in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. Through a mixed-method approach, combining inter- views, surveys, content analysis, photography, and videography, I outline how this clan asso- ciation increases social cohesion through its continued functions of providing aesthetic value and being a tourist attraction. This makes the case for the continued retention of his- torical buildings and practices, despite overarching social changes such as super-diversity. Keywords: Cities and culture; cultural heritage; super-diversity. RESUMO – ESTÉTICA DA SUPER-DIVERSIDADE: O EDIFÍCIO DO CLÃ ANCES- TRAL CANTONÊS ENQUANTO PLATAFORMA DE INTEGRAÇÃO SOCIAL.

Chan Kartini A.T. Khalid National University of Malaysia National University of Malaysia Abstract Chinese clan associations can be found in many parts of the world, due to the Chinese emigration from mainland China in the 1800s. This paper contextualises the study of Chinese clan associations within the Asian approach to cultural heritage preservation. In particular, it takes the case of Cantonese clan associations, a dialect group of the Chinese, whose clan associations have been studied less extensively in comparison to other dialects such as Hokkien and Hakka. The case study used is the Chan See Shu Yuen Clan Association Kuala Lumpur & Selangor (CSSYKL), which was originally set up by a founder of Cantonese origin, and now operates as a cultural centre as well as a tourist attraction in a strategic location in Malaysia’s capital Kuala Lumpur.

ABSTRACT This report is one of a series of publications resulting from a survey and research project to investigate the influence of certain economic and institutional factors on couples' fertility behavior in Peninsular Malaysia. It includes maps and verbal descriptions of the 52 primary sampling units in the sample. The descriptions are based on interview with knowledgeable local officials and residents and on personal observations, all made in 1976 and 1977. An important part of the survey has been documentation of community and public program characteristics that might affact people's economic and demographic behavior. Working with a list of specific ques­ tions and more general areas of interest, the author attempts to describe each Primary Sampling Unit(PSU) in detail. Both current characteristics and recent historical data are of interest. Background information about Peninsular Malaysia and the definition of a PSU are presented. PSU descriptions are organized in three sections: main market centers, other urban towns, and rural. Forty-nine of these PSUs were selected using probability sampling methods and constitute a random sample of the 6125 PSUs in Peninsular Malaysia.

    Sejarah: Journal of History Department, University of Malaya; No. 28 (2) 2019: 21-42; ISSN 1985-0611. FROM DIALECT TO ETHNIC IDENTITY: THE CHINESE COMMUNITY IN THE KLANG VALLEY AS A CASE STUDY Wen Wei* Danny Wong Tze-Ken** University of Malaya (UM) Abstract This article reviews the history of the Hakka, Cantonese and Hokkien dialect groups who had successively become the leading forces among the Chinese in the Klang Valley from 1860 prior to the World War II. It also examines rivalries between different dialect groups which were related to the Chinese community leadership in four aspects covered by the position of Kapitan Cina; the management rights in Chinese temples and ancestral halls; the bloody riots and the presidentship in the Chinese economic and social bodies like the Selangor Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall. The objectives of this article are to identify two dialect groups power transformations within the Chinese community and to analyze the factors which resulted to these dialect power shifts and the Chinese ethnic integration. The analyses in this article are based on the primary sources consisting of the files of Colonial Office from the National Archives, London, Selangor Annual Reports from the National Archives of Malaysia, the secondary sources consisting of the magazines from different Chinese associations in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, Chinese newspapers which preserved in Singapore and some Chinese Foreign Ministry records from Academia Historica, Taiwan. This study found that the Hakka power was based on its authoritarian leadership, the Cantonese power was based on their economic strength and the Hokkien power was based on their abilities to stimulate the Chinese ethnic integration.
