Overview

Steve Lau
The focus of the Chinese community on the family unit has led to great success in the fields of commerce, education and has also sustained a strong sense of Chinese identity and culture.
This focus has maintained a largely self- regulated and socially compliant community.
From this the British born Chinese are generally confident in their identity with harmonious inter-generational relations.
The community enjoys success in education, lowers rates of anti- social and criminal behaviour and higher levels of entry into the 'professions'.
However, the focus on the family unit leads to disengagement from the wider community and often, even from the broader Chinese community in the UK.
