Chaoshan Dialect Overseas -3
However, before 1906 "imperial post and telecommunications joint conference" unified the spelling of place names, some place names already had the customary spelling of Latin letters, and these place names remained unchanged. For example, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Xiamen, Shantou and so on.
1858, that is, the eighth year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty. After the Second Opium War, the Qing government was forced to sign the Sino-British Treaty of Tianjin, which stipulated Chaozhou as a trading port. However, due to the strong resistance of the people in Chaozhou city, foreigners voluntarily gave up their trade in Chaozhou city and chose Shantou, which is relatively safe.
1860, that is, Qing Xianfeng 10, Shantou officially opened to the outside world at the request of western powers, becoming the third largest port in China and the second province with customs.
Due to the contact between many hometown people and overseas Chinese at that time, postal pinyin began to be used, in which place names were translated in local dialects, and postal pinyin in some Chaoshan areas was translated as:
Shantou-Shantou
Chaozhou dialect-Chaozhou
Kittiar-Jieyang
Shigao-Chenghai
Teoan-Chaoan
Qiao Ben Raoping
Namall- South Australia
Teoyar-Chaoyang
Poland-Puning
Huili-Huilai
Swaboue-Shanwei
19 12 after the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), postal pinyin continued to be used, so it was the most commonly used system for spelling place names in China in western countries in the first half of the 20th century.
On June 1 93265438+1October1day, the Central Bank of Guangdong was officially reorganized into the Bank of Guangdong Province by the order of the National Government, and became a local bank during Chen's reign in Guangdong.

/kloc-at the end of 0/906, the Chaoshan Railway connecting Shantou and Chaozhou was opened to traffic, which was the first commercial railway in China. Railways control southwest Fujian and eastern Guangdong, with considerable turnover. The average daily freight volume is about100t, and the revenue is almost the same as that of Tokaido Railway in Japan. This is one of the best railways in China. The following picture shows Shantou Station of Chaoshan Railway, which was shot at that time:

Jieyang Chaoshan Airport, which is now located in Jieyang, still uses SWA beginning with Shantou Post Pinyin SWATOW for display.
Although "postal pinyin" is very tall, it was originally used to spell the place names of China. But before the publication of postal pinyin, the names of some places were already called by Latin letters, so the names of many places were different. This is a very mixed system.
