The streets are full of "Chinese characters". Why is Kuala Lumpur so like China?

Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia (and the largest city in Malaysia). The reason why Kuala Lumpur is so like China is that Chinese characters are everywhere. The main reason is that the population living in Kuala Lumpur accounts for a large proportion of Chinese (about 25%), and the unique charm of our culture and extremely strong assimilation power lead to the strong influence of Chinese in Malaysia, which leads to the present situation. Seeing this, I think everyone will be proud of the charm of our culture. Indeed, we should cultivate a sense of identity with our own culture. It is really not advisable to worship foreign things and flatter foreign countries.

When you are in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, as a Chinese, you may have an illusion that it should be a small town in the south of our country. After all, Chinese characters (and simplified characters) are everywhere, and it is effortless to communicate with others. No matter where you look, you will mistakenly think that you have not gone abroad. Especially when we come to the Chinese community in Kuala Lumpur? Cichang Street (Chinatown in Kuala Lumpur), this feeling will be even stronger. You can see many China cultural figures, such as temples, ancestral halls, restaurants and markets, which are not too obviously different from those in China. That's why people say that Kuala Lumpur is really like a city in China.

Chinese immigrants in Kuala Lumpur can be traced back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, especially Zheng He's seven voyages to the West, which opened the first upsurge of Chinese emigration to Malaysia. Later, the wars in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties and the civil strife in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China all caused a group of people to move to the New Matai area. As we all know, people in Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian have a tradition of going to sea, and because of the geographical advantages of Malaysia and other regions, they have become the first choice for going to sea in Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian, so most of the Chinese in Malaysia should be from Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian.

Chinese in Kuala Lumpur are very similar to China because of their outstanding business talent, which leads to their huge influence and extensive influence here, and domestic factors such as culture brought about by migration. Of course, the official language of Malaysia is Malay. After all, Malaysia's population is still Malay.
