Fu Zhikuan, Founder and President of Indonesian Media Group (CCM) (second from left)

Murdaya Poo, founder and president of Indonesia Media Group (CCM) born in Meixian County, Guangdong Province, is worth $654.38+0.2 billion.

The 80-year-old Fu Zhikuan's family is diversified, and CCM Group is an Indonesian partner of China xd.

It is necessary to mention that in March 1965, former Indonesian President Susilo issued Presidential Decision 2005/2004. 12, announcing the cancellation of the document circulated by the Cabinet Presidium at 1967, officially abolishing the official title "Tjina/China/Cina" (Zhina) and re-using the word Tionghoa (China) as the Chinese title.

A later article in Jakarta Post said that the change of appellation was not unrelated to the unremitting efforts of Indonesian Chinese themselves. In addition, it was Wang He, the former chairman of the Indonesian Chinese General Association and the founder of the Indonesian National Construction Foundation, and Fu Zhikuan, a former member of parliament, who finally persuaded President Susilo to abolish the use of zhina.

Remember this Meixian Chinese entrepreneur-Fu Zhikuan! Indonesian Chinese have experienced a hundred years of vicissitudes. From Cina (zhina) to Tionghoa (China), the change of this title marks that Chinese, as an important ethnic group in Indonesia, have taken another important step to gain due respect and normal political and social status.

Dr. Li Wenzheng (right), founder of Lippo Group and former Chairman of the Board of Directors of Indonesian University.

By the end of 20 15, before Li Wenzheng's autobiography was published, Li Wenzheng, the founder of Lippo Group, lived under one roof for four generations and 96 people. He wrote in the preface: "I was born in 1929. As long as I can remember, I have experienced war, escape, disaster, death and poverty. Life is bumpy and full of variables, and the future is always unpredictable. "

In his autobiography, Li Wenzheng shared his life's struggle history. He said: Lippo Group grew up with the economy and politics of Indonesia and China, and it can be said that it grew up with Indonesia and China. For decades, it has also experienced great storms, and today's Bao Li has been achieved through diligence and hard work.

Li Wenzheng said: I spent my college time in China. 1950 back to Indonesia. At the end of February, Indonesia's independence was recognized, and 1950 officially became an independent country. The independent development of Indonesia coincides with the beginning of my personal career. He wrote meaningfully: "Every success and failure in my career is actually a microcosm and portrayal of different times in Indonesian society. Sometimes, I walk in the forefront of the times; Sometimes, I am involved in the big waves of the times. "

As Li Wenzheng, an Indonesian Chinese businessman, said, the history of Indonesian Chinese is actually a microcosm of Indonesia's modern history. After 1980s, with the Indonesian government relaxing the naturalization of overseas Chinese, most of them became Indonesian citizens, and the Chinese economy essentially evolved from overseas Chinese economy to Indonesian economy. However, even now, Indonesian Chinese businessmen still face many development difficulties.

Indonesian richest man Huizhong Huang

Why are there so many rich people in Fujian and Guangdong provinces in Indonesia?

In 20021year, there were 22 Indonesian rich people who entered Forbes global rich list, including Chinese 12, more than half. Among them, except for Liu Deguang and Hary Tanoesoedibjo, who are mainlanders, there are seven rich Indonesians in Fujian, namely: Huizhong Huang, the richest man in Indonesia, and Huang Huixiang, his brother from Jinjiang, Fujian; Weng Junmin, a native of Fuqing, Fujian; Martua Sitorus, from Jinjiang, Fujian; Li Wenzheng, from Putian, Fujian; Chen Jianghe, from Putian, Fujian; There is also Lin Lianxing, a native of Fuqing, Fujian.

There are three Indonesian Chinese rich people in Guangdong, namely: Peng, whose ancestral home is Luhe, Guangdong; Guo, a native of Tai Po, Guangdong; Fu Zhikuan, originally from Meixian County, Guangdong Province.

Indonesia is the country with the largest number of Chinese in Southeast Asia, with an estimated population of100000. In the early days of the founding of the Republic of China, Indonesia adopted a tolerant policy towards the naturalization of overseas Chinese and implemented a nationality law based on the principle of birthplace. At that time, the capital of Indonesia was Yogyakarta, which is why most Chinese were concentrated in Java. From 1950s to the end of 1970s, Indonesia's anti-Chinese sentiment was high, the theory of descent was replaced by the theory of descent, and the naturalization of overseas Chinese was restricted. During this period, many overseas Chinese in Indonesia were forced to move to Singapore, Malaysia and other places, and some returned to the motherland.

1990, China and Indonesia resumed diplomatic relations (note: 1967). In the process of democratization in Indonesia, the status of Chinese has also been restored, and their political status and living conditions have also changed greatly. There are more than half of Chinese in Indonesia's rich list, which is also the best display of Indonesian Chinese's economic struggle and efforts.

Surabaya, Indonesia

Fujian and Guangdong provinces are in Indonesia. Why are there so many rich people? The first is the population base, Indonesian Chinese in Fujian, followed by Cantonese. At present, the three major cities in Indonesia are Jakarta, Surabaya and Medan. Surabaya, the second largest city, has a population of about 4 million, including Chinese 1 10,000, and 78% of the economy is controlled by Chinese.

Among the Chinese in Surabaya, about 60% are Minnan people, about 30% are Hakkas, and 10% are other Han people. Hakkas have a long history of emigrating to Indonesia, most of whom are Cantonese. According to the Records of Overseas Chinese in Guangdong Province, Hakkas migrated to Indonesia in the Tang Dynasty. At present, the ancestral homes of overseas Hakkas are mostly Meixian, Hainan and Chaozhou.

Moreover, Fujian people rank first in Indonesia's rich list, which is also the result of the wealth pyramid structure. In the past century, Chinese groups have migrated to Southeast Asia with strong local culture, and the distribution and accumulation of wealth is a combination of historical memory and social status quo. For more than 100 years, with several waves of immigration, the power, scale and influence of Fujian people, Hakka people and Guangfu people in Southeast Asian countries are changing.

Nowadays, no one can shake the position of Chaoshan people in Guangdong in Thailand's economy, including the Chinese community; Similarly, in Singapore and Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, Fujian people have an advantage. Like the Philippine rich list, Fujian Jinjiang boss is also a bully.

Being in a foreign country, for most enterprises in China, even in the era of globalization, commercial networks based on consanguinity, geography and consanguinity, including the cultural edge of their hometown, still exist, which enables them to gain more competitive chips with the help of the strength and advantages of "holding a group".
