OVERSEAS CHINESE CONTACT IN THE NETHERLANDS (OCCN)

In September 1993 the association Overzeese Chinezen Contact
Nederland (OCCN, Overseas Chinese Contact in the Netherlands) was
established with the aim of stimulating and co-ordinating Dutch
scholarly interest in the ethnic Chinese who are living outside
China, and their relationships with China. So far, some sixty
members have been registered from a wide variety of universities
and other institutes for academic research, with research
projects on very diverse aspects of the ethnic Chinese
communities overseas. For detailed information on the OCCN
membership, meetings, Newsletter, and other activities, please
