  • The Chinese Community in North Queensland
    THE CHINESE COMMUNITY IN NORTH QUEENSLAND Ms. C.R. May During the nineteenth century, the Chinese, who for several thousand years had been one of the most geographically Immobile populations in the world, suddenly began migrating to distant countries. This trend can be attributed partly to the parlous condition into which China had fallen owing to the decline of the ruling dynasty. When a dynasty In China deteriorated, as tended to happen every few himdred years. It was said to have lost the "mandate of Heaven", a type of divine right to govern, and thus an opportune moment had arrived for a rival to seize the throne. Indications that this mandate had been forfeited Included official corruption, manifested in extortionate rents and taxes, banditry, the appearance of contenders for the throne and general mlsgovemment which was felt keenly at the local level. Earning a living or growing sufficient food for one's needs became a precarious undertaking and people began to look further afield for a stable means of livelihood. Despite the poor quality of life in China at the time, however, those who migrated usually did so not for their own well-being but in order to Increase the prosperity of their Immediate family and clan. Consequently, money earned overseas was often remitted home to support relatives and the expatriate was expected to return also when his duties overseas were fulfilled. Not all immigrants to Australia were poverty-stricken. Some representatives of wealthy Hong Kong firms also migrated but these were more in the minority. It should be noted that practically all Chinese emigrants came from a relatively small area of South China.

The area is known for its beef cattle, dairy products and crops such as bananas, mangoes, avocadoes, coffee, mixed vegetables and even tobacco. The main towns on the Tablelands are Mareeba, Malanda, Millaa Millaa, Kuranda, Yungaburra and of course, Atherton.
