The Chinese community in Singapore primarily came during the 19th and early 20th centuries, driven by economic opportunities and political instability in China. Many were drawn by the booming tin mining and rubber industries, as well as the promise of work in the growing port city. They arrived as part of larger migration waves, including the Hokkien, Cantonese, and Teochew dialect groups, seeking better livelihoods and contributing significantly to Singapore's development. Over time, this community established itself, forming a vital part of Singapore's multicultural society.
