Because the Chinese govt. has opened its country to foreign capitalist business, and if Yahoo wants to do business in China they must play by the rules that the Chinese govt has set even if it means the good guys get caught. But money is money and that is the bottom line.

Yes.  Many people wrongfully equate illegal immigration with people of Mexican ancestry.  This is very unfair because we don't assume the same of people who are from other countries.  There are more Mexican immigrants here illegally than any other nationality, but that's only due to our proximity to Mexico, and they are by no means the only people who are here "without papers".

in terms of numbers there are quite a few, but nothing compared to indonesia, malaysia, or thailand. per centage wise, 0.8% of the american population is chinese. \nthere are more chinese in the tiny little country of viet nam than the entire usa.

Canada Immigration now favours people from those countries instead of Europeans....\nI am not judging. This is a fact.\nLots of Eastern European too..\nI don't know why. Cheap labour for some ? Lots of people from China, Korea etc are already extremely educated already but their diplomas are not recognised.\nWhy ? more children ??\nEuropeans do not have as many children..\nIt is puzzling.\nAnd folks : no offense to anybody whatsoever ! I saw how many so educated people from other countries end up flip-flopping burgers !

well there is gonna be a lot of Chinese coming around in the future ,especially to be in farming,they got mega problems with that at home ,and they got lots of money so Chinese would be more politically correct\non the other hand most of the labor will be in Spanish so you need that as well.\n\nwhy cant you have more than two extra languages in your country ,is your intelligence that limited \n\n,in Holland the norm is 4 languages,for everybody ,\nFrench.Dutch.German and English and very often Spanish as well.my dad spoke 6 languages ,the average Moroccan street kid can handle 5.\n\nand the Chinese and Japanese Will not do the menial jobs that the Mexicans are doing ,i know that for sure ,and have seen it in Africa.

Because many of them are illegal aliens. They have alot to loose by this law passing. Many of these kids were brought over here by their parents on work visa's and have grown up knowing nothing but this country. They will not be able to continue their education or go to college if this law passes nor be able to apply for a SSN or drivers licence. There are very many touching stories, and it is heart breaking that these kids are going to be affected in such a bad way because of choices their parents made. So many freedoms that many of us forget and take for granted. It's a tough call, because in so many ways by not tightening down on illegal immigration and making it more of a crime we will never get a hold on it, yet there are many who are here and they are contributing in a good way to our country. It's so hard to know where to draw the line. But if this law passes they have alot to loose, I can't really blame them. They have a right to protest just like any of the rest of us, that's what makes this country great.

Indians & chineese are two of the oldest cultures in the world,Roman,Egyptian & Mexican have perhaps appeared later. Anyway those two cultures have been maintaining continuum over several cebturies, recorded history says 6000 yrs.Their genes have undergone mindboggling number of generations, even 50,000 is much less. There has not been much of migration as in case of others, who have frequently changed their lifestyle for economic gains. All wealthy Nations suffers from this exodus. India & china have perfected brain skills though they have remained poor in the eyes of Developed world.

What people failed to understand was that no one is opposed to legal immigrants, but many of us are opposed to illegal immigrants. There is a BIG difference between the two.

Truth is illegal mexican workers are "the new slaves" like black people were at one point.There is a high demand of illegal workers and Thats why they are here! People want to pay for cheap labor and thats why they are here. But why just focus on one group??? what about the italian illegal immigrants? and what about the germans? and the polish? and the chinese? or japanese? my point is that people discriminate against only the mexican workers and then (and this bothers me a lot) they come off saying "OH I'm part german and part ecuatorian and part this and part that" Your ancestors were immigrants too at one point or another FACE IT! Unless you have 100% indian and only indian (native american) from before the british got here indian You come from an immigrant background. I think they deserve a chance ONLY if they want to STAy here and learn the language and pay taxes and not borders hop,work and then go back. If they want to truly become american citizens I say YOU DESERVE IT!! and YOU SHOULD GET A CHANCE!!

Because they don't realize just how many people are coming.  Sure its fine to let Hiram and Jahasha who are here illegally stay,  there are only two of them and they are good workers.  They don't realize that those two are among millions of people here, and millions more trying to get here.  If we become overcrowded like their country is, we will become like their country.  Then maybe we will invade Canada, or shoot, we can go to Honduras, they are all here, we can go there.  \n\nI watched thousands of illegal immigrants released each week.  Now they are out there.  Go visit Falls Church, West Virginia.

India has about 1000 million people. China has about 1260 million. In India approx 22 million are born every year whereas, only 10 million are born in China. By this measure in 2045, India shall overtake the Chinese population, with an Indian population of 1550 millions.

Chinese immigration in México has been around for a while. You'll find a lot of chinese descendant in states in the pacific, like Sinaloa, Sonora and Baja California. The chinese population in several states have been growing noticeable in the past few years. The same goes for Korean population, but that wasn't part of your question.\n\nI've met enough people that are half chinese that I don't know much about the "discriminatory society" part. I think the discrimination is average, like every other multicultural society.

indian and chinese share a lot of things in common. aside from being asian people, the chinese owes the indians for the spread of buddhism. chinese is not completely chinese without the indian influences in chinese architecture, religion, literature, and others. it is even said that the famous shaolin kung fu was developed by an indian monk.
