Overseas Chinese top the world at 45 million

The number of overseas Chinese has reached 45 million, becoming the world's largest overseas group, according to the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office of the State Council cited in Guangzhou Daily.

Many of the new emigrants are choosing to live in Europe. When asked about attitudes towards citizens moving abroad, Overseas Chinese Affairs Office said that with the precondition of legality, they respect their right and choice, protect their legitimate rights abroad, and will guide them to assimilate with local society, to make due economic contributions.

Hope they are as hardworking as our grandparents.
