I am Chinese - it doesn't matter what other people say.

I'm slowly feeling more Chinese and feel I should be more proud of being Chinese and appreciate where I've come from.

One of the unique features of China is that, notwithstanding the fact that it has a population of 1.3 billion, around 92% regard themselves as Han Chinese. This is quite different from the world's other most populous countries, such as India, the U.S. and Indonesia, which are ethnically diverse.

I think that at heart I am an old-fashioned Chinese, really I am.

I am Taiwanese as well as Chinese.

No matter how American I become, I'm considered part of the Chinese community by my own family.

Even though I'm very Westernized as an individual and very Canadian, I guess I've lost some of my Chinese culture.

I came, I studied architecture in America, so my technical background's completely western. But my seventeen years, the formative years of one's life, and I can't say that the Chineseness in me is not there.

I look like I'm Chinese or Thai or Japanese - very different.
