The Chinese ethnic group is one of the largest in Indonesia and has made significant contributions to the country's history, culture, and economy. It is estimated that around 8-10 million Chinese Indonesians currently live in Indonesia, making them the second-largest ethnic group after the Javanese.
The Chinese community has a long history in Indonesia, with traces of their presence evident in major cities such as Jakarta, Surabaya, Medan, and Semarang. Over time, they have adapted to Indonesian culture and introduced Chinese culture to Indonesian society, leading to a strong influence on Indonesia's culture and cuisine.
In the economic sector, Chinese Indonesians are known for their success and influence in business, with many large companies owned and managed by members of this community. This has made them a major contributor to Indonesia's economic growth.
However, the history of the Chinese community in Indonesia has also experienced difficult periods, particularly during the New Order era when discrimination against Chinese Indonesians occurred. Today, however, they have become an integral part of Indonesia's cultural diversity and are recognized as an important ethnic group contributing to the progress and development of the country.
Here are the five largest Chinese ethnic groups in Indonesia by population:
Hokkien: The Hokkien are the largest Chinese ethnic group in Indonesia. They primarily live in Jakarta, Medan, and Semarang.
Teochew: The Teochew are the second-largest Chinese ethnic group in Indonesia, residing mainly in Surabaya, Singkawang, and Jakarta.
Hakka: The Hakka are the third-largest Chinese ethnic group in Indonesia, found primarily in Jakarta, Medan, and Pontianak.
Cantonese: The Cantonese are the fourth-largest Chinese ethnic group in Indonesia, with communities in Jakarta, Medan, and Surabaya.
Hainanese: The Hainanese are the fifth-largest Chinese ethnic group in Indonesia, primarily residing in Jakarta, Surabaya, and Pontianak.
