Qiaoxiang, it means homeland of Chinese diaspora in China, which is mainly located in southern part of China and very special in China’s history as large number of people of this land emigrated to abroad, resulting in qiaoxiang has been characteristic of keeping close relations with overseas. qiaoxiang ties, a widely used term in describing the relations between qiaoxiang and overseas Chinese diaspora, has been coined in the field of the study of Chinese diaspora and became a significant factor in the interaction between qiaoxiang and overseas Chinese diaspora. Traditionally, qiaoxiang has been referred to southern provinces of China, mainly including Fujian (Min ?), Guangdong (Yue ?), where people has centuries long history of migrating to Southeast Asian region. As a result, people from Fujian and Guangdong constitutes the majority of the Chinese dispora in Southeast Asian area, and formed qiaoxiang ties linking Fujian & Guangdong with Southeast Asia. Thus, a primitive type of qiaoxiang ties is established on the basis of kin group & family clan and dialect group & cultural links. A lot of research has been done to demonstrate qiaoxiang ties is an important dynamics in promoting social economic development in qiaoxiang in the modem China, especially the avalanche of remittance from diaspora significantly promoted qiaoxiang’s modernization.
With the implementation of policies of Reform and Opening to the outside world since 1978, in China, qiaoxiang ties has been revived and exploited by various levels of governments in China after nearly 30 years demonization. Firstly, under the guidance of Export Promotion Strategy sponsored by the central government, four SEZs (Special Economic Zones) have been set up in four famous qiaoxiang areas, including Zhuhai, Shenzhen, Shantou and Xiamen where are the homeland of large number of Chinese diaspora in Southeast Asia area and Hongkong as well as Macao, with the purpose to exploit diaspora’s capital, technology and overseas market network to promote the export of industrial products. The success of four SEZs has approved the availability of qiaoxiang ties, which encourage the central and local governments to further utilize diaspora to promote the Reform and Opening policy. As a result, qiaoxiang ties, which is viewed as a available and efficient way integrating overseas sources to promoting China’s economic modernization, has been copied and used widely around the whole China.
It is worthy noted that, with the further development of policies of Reform and Opening, a large number of new Chinese diaspora are getting phenomenal around world, and among them there are emerging a large group of scientists and intellectuals in the developed countries, who are viewed as significant dynamics to promote China’s modernization in global era, thus, attracting these intellectuals back to China is becoming China’s new strategy in integrating diaspora into China’s development, resulting in the various brain projects launched by the levels of Chinese government. In the new strategy of integrating diaspora, various levels of government are becoming a key role in the re modeling qiaoxiang ties and re shaping the narrative of qiaoxiang ties.
In conclusion, in today’s China, Chinese diaspora discourse is becoming heated and spreads into political, economic and cultural spheres, which demonstrate Chinese diaspora is being increasingly integrated in China’s socio economic development, and even being considered in the design of China’s foreign policy in the globalization era. Furthermore, qiaoxiang ties, featured with unique Chineseness in cultural dimension, is becoming increasingly an available media linking modernizing China and Overseas Chinese diaspora under the promotion of the all levels of government.
