I found your channel this week and I am amazed about all I am learning from the Hakka,I was born in Cuba and my hometown had a strong Cantonese community. Historians said that the majority of them were Hakka, they emigrated under contracts to work in the fields but many stayed and formed families; during the late XIX century they fought against the Spanish crown on the independence wars, there is monument in Havana city that said that they were not a traitor or a coward among them, it is said that Chinese battalions were fierce warriors. Thank you for all the information I am getting from your videos!
I'd like to visit Cuba one day.
I am a Hakka living in the UK, my ancestry originally came from Canton, China, . Your wonderful documentary was truly awe inspiring, it conjured up an image of my great grand parents walking down those steps leading to the boat, an exhilarating sense of de ja vu totally overwhelmed me, thank you for the wonderful experience.
Excellent video, I learned a lot about where my people came from. I would love to visit someday. My father was born in Indonesia, grew up in Moyan - Meizhou, migrated to India and then to Canada.
Where the place in indonesia? I'm hakka from indonesia
My greatgreat grandfather was from Meixian in Guanzhou where he came to Indonesia then to Malaysia and they settled in Perak Malaysia and was doing tin mining business there I always love to hear stories from my grandfather and father about their story I wish I could one day visit all these places that you have shown thank you so much
Welcome to China anytime！
Yes, if not stumbling to your channel I wouldn't know so much of my own heritage too. Especially when I can't read mandarin and that makes it even harder. You really inspired me to find my roots and visit my grandfather birth place one day. My grandfather fled the war with his uncle after his parents were killed in the war. Thank you.
Thanks you for your video about Meizhou. I am from Myanmar and my father come from Meizhou. He was a Hakka. I only know my father come from Meizhou and didn't know address n his relatives at Meizhou. He passed away when i was young since 1975.
Hmmm... not any information about the town or village? no letter exchange with relatives at home at all? I read story of overseas Chinese who found their ancestral place and even ancestral house with an old name from the Qing Dynasty or some very remote information.
Thanks for you vlog histori suku Hakka❤❤❤
Thank you so much for the moving stories about the Hakka people 🙏 They are truly inspiring 👍
Saya sudah 2 kali pulang kampung tanah leluhur❤❤❤
I learnt so much about my clan history of which I had no idea previously. My father is a Hakka from the Canton region. I never been there although my father did go back to his hometown many2 years back. This program is so valuable. The history is so rich. You have done a marvellous job putting all the stories in a video. You have kept the tradition and the culture alive for many generations to come otherwise it would be lost as time passes. Many young people takes their culture and roots for granted until they lost it. At times they are not to be blamed as they are not aware and no written history about it. I m so delighted and grateful for what you have done. The story tells us the suffering and joy of the people and they make us what we are today. Many thanks to you and our ancestors.
Thank you! You are so nice!
Hai my sister Yanyan Go,i'am Haka❤❤❤
Thank Yanyan for the Hakka series Yanyan. I'm hakka from Pontianak, Indonesia
My pleasure!
Thanks
Awesome history, awesome people who just moved anywhere. Pioneers.
Hi Yan Yan, thank you for sharing such important history, I am from Malaysia but my late grandmother was from Tang Ping Cun, Qi Gong Zhen, Yang Shan, north of Guong Dong. However not much details available about my ancestor origin, her parent, type of Hakka language etc as she passed away in 1980s with no communications or records or living person left. FYI, there are many Hakkas here working in tin mine & rubber estates before 1970s.
阳山县七拱镇塘坪村。First time hear about this county. I'm conducting research on it to see if there's anything interesting there. Is your grandmother's last name 骆， just curious.
Thank you for sharing this. I am planning a trip to YongDing and MeiZhou next year. This is really helpful for me. Besides, my grandparents' ancestry is from Cixi 赤溪 Hakka, it would be great if you could cover this area as well. Cixi Hakka seems to be a very rare Hakka group in Southeast Asia.
I didn't know 赤溪 until someone commented in another video of mine saying he/she is from 赤溪，a Hakka town. I looked that up and actually booked a trip that included a stop in 赤溪 earlier this year. That trip was cancelled after I got Covid. I might go next year but highly probably I won't make a video about it because besides the coastal view there's not much to cover. (I assume the 赤溪 you refer to is the coastal town in 台山市）
Thank You Yanyan for your very interesting hakka series.
Beautifully done, it is a very moving story of grit and determination of Chinese emigrants.
Also in kolkata, india Yanyan.
3000 families existed here. Now most migrated to canada, australia, sweden , US and taiwan.
Thank you for your information. I just looked that up. I'll include this info. in my future videos.
Hello from hakka njin in South Africa! 🇿🇦
Thank you for making this video. Greetings from Mauritius!
Saya,sudah sampai ditempat ini,my father & grand mother grand father from vilage ThungLeuhang
Thanks!
Thank you!
I'm pleasantly surprised you mentioned Mauritius and this is the island where many of our parents or ancestors came from.
Thank you from Toronto Canada.
And I quote your comment in the video (I covered your ID in the video because I am not sure if you are comfortable to share that in the video). It was your comment that inspired me to study the relation between Mauritius and Meizhou Hakka.

1892 at the age of 13, my grandfather made his 1st step out to his journey at the river bank you have showing here 🙏
So brave!
We are all hakka

Hi Yan Yan , good job keep it up, my ancestors are from Huiyang and I hope you can cover this part in your next or future video
The background music is too loud so it’s difficult to listen to the narrative. I would rather there’s no music so I can concentrate and listen to the Hakka history. Thank you Yan Yan!
Hakka is currently second largest dialect group in Malaysian ethnic Chinese people
Thanks , great video about my ancestors town, my grandfather also came from Meixian,❤❤❤
San kou yang / singkawang west Borneo / Kalimantan barat Indonesia. All my ancestors from Mei zhou .🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
ur content is amazing,i learn about haakaa cultuture from u,keep up the good work ,god bless u🥰
Hi Yanyan thanks for all information you colect. I learn alot about my father land ,wish once day I can go back there to visit. As alway thanks alot.
I live in th UK. My great grandfather was from Guandong and travelled to Jamaica - all the Chinese who went there were from that region.
This is awesome. So interesting. Many hakka families from Sabah Malaysia migrated to Perth since the 90s from my knowledge! My family is one of them. Sounds like Hakka keeps moving south. By the next centur we'll be in South pole 😂
haha
The history 1914 years ago (thn.1914 ) my grand ma grand pa & my father checkout from Thung Leuhang go to Indonesia Batavia
Thanks for mentioning Suriname, formerly Dutch Guyana in South America. I think Indonesia may be the missing link on the Hakka migration to Suriname. One would infer that because of Chinese migrants already in Indonesia, a Dutch colony, the Dutch decided to bring some over to their other colony in the West Indies.
I also read Indonesia was the link.
Another information filled episode. It's amazing to learn about one of the biggest Chinese migration spread around the world some generations ago. Although I have not known my grandfather from motherside I know he came if I remember correctly from 竹尾田(村). He lived in Jamaica
I know竹尾田，its a village in Dongguan，a Hakka village
May name Maria Yasinta from Indonesia & China name Lay Nyuk Phin ( marga Lay )
Hello Maria. Nice to meet you!
Very interesting and historical video. However, the background music is a little too loud.
I'm a fourth generation hakka from Indonesia, I'm not sure about my origins and I can't speak Hakka due to the cultural genocide (排华)，but it seems our history might be different to that mentioned in the video; as it has been passed down to me, my ancestors were of low class peasantry backgrounds and fled China due to Hakka discrimination and massacres conducted by other Chinese people. based on what I was told, they might've come from the mountains and worked as people comparable to serfs for the local (Canton?) people.
I'm curious if anyone has any further information or come from the same origins as I am. I've been living in China for quite some time, but the Hakka people I've met from Guangxi don't seem to recall any of their family histories either, a lot of the younger generations (including me) seem to be far removed our origins
I am currently in Borneo Malaysia where many Hakka live. Very interesting. I will share with some of my friends this story of their ancestral homeland. They developed some incredible food here in Malaysia like chili pan mee and more.
For your Hakka friends in Malaysia, Meixian in this video could be the ancestral place for some of them. Another possible place is Dabu County (ua-cam.com/video/zJwkV7MJJH8/v-deo.html). There are also many Hakka in Malaysia whose ancestors were from Shenzhen & Huizhou area which I will upload several videos soon.
Your English is very good
I’m from there ❤

Hi Yanyan, thank you for all the videos you had made about Hakka migration. My Grandfather was from Zhong Muk Tou, Dongguan. He migrated to Sandakan, North Borneo. Do you have any information about their migration? . Thanks
U mean Zhang mu tou？ a hakka town in Dongguan

Hi Yan Yan,
Just wondering if you'd be going to Meixian anytime soon, as my dad's family is there and I can't understand much Hakka. I've always wanted to know if my dad was adopted or not.
If you have plans to go there in the future, please let me know so I can meet you there and if you're ok with it, be my translator please.
Thank you so much for your informative videos. I've once visited Songku with my parents and big brother. Keep up the great work.
I went to Meixian last year and filmed a Weilong house there. Currently I don't have any plan to visit it again. There's not much to film there. At least I haven't found an interesting topic. Speaking of being a translator, I'm not Hakka. I don't speak the Hakka dialect. When I was in Meixian, I didn't understand anything the elders said. (Haha, surprise!) You can contact 梅州侨办 to see if they could arrange a translator if you plan to go. Wish everything goes on well!

A lot of Hakka women made the passage to Malaya and intermarried with Indian men there.
Can we see inside the hotel and steam boat?
Prior to the pandemic, the hotel was open to public. It's not a hotel anymore. It's like an exhibition center. I am not sure if the hotel is open now or if not, whether it would open again in the future. The tourism industry has been hit hard by the pandemic. The boat, no. I don't even think that's a real boat.
@@yanyangoaroundinchina ooo, thank you 🙏

I knew very little about my granddad birthplace, and my father left me when I was born. Even though, my youngest aunt who loved and helped me a lot. I believed this is the place my granddad has started his journey to a promise land in the South, Vietnam.
