Title
Wandering China
Preview
Description
These are the chronicles on the journey of understanding the imagination of China by overseas Chinese. Well, that's me. 3rd (I think, someone correct me.) generation overseas-born Chinese, Teochew, with ancestors from Chao An 'zheng' (town) in Guangdong 'shen' (province) in China, Singaporean. English educated, brought up with Western lenses on viewing the world.
Now rediscovering his roots amidst China's massive nationalist soft power world media vehicles whilst based in Melbourne. And realising that Chinese is a huge misnomer unable to represent the vast divides, ethnicities and stratas of China's 'official' list of 55+1 peoples (1 being the overwhelming han majority).
This blog mainly extracts articles and information from sites based in three countries - China, Singapore and Australia.

E.P.I.C is Singapore's freeform band, proponents of the freeform mantra. To date they have a library of over 200 original songs spanning more than multiple genres. Also highly guilty of cross-pollinating music that are traditionally at logger-heads at each other, E.P.I.C has been performing all across the island since 2002. Their music is freely downloadable at their home on the web.
