20) According to Figure 11-6, which country does not have a significant Chinese immigrant population?

A map explains the Chinese migration throughout Southeast Asia. It marks the migration routes, major concentrations, and secondary concentrations of Chinese emigrating from southern China. The Chinese migrated from Macau and regions west of Xiamen, south via the South China Sea. Initial destinations included coastal southern Vietnam; the island of Luzon in the Philippines; Kota Kinabalu and Sibu on the northeast coast of Borneo; Banjarmasin on the southern coast of Borneo; and multiple locations on the islands of Sumatera and Jawa. The southern migration turned northward via the Gulf of Thailand to peninsular Thailand and the Bangkok area, and via the Strait of Malacca all the way to Yangon in Myanmar. Smaller overland flows from inland southern China transited the area of the current China-Vietnam border, and the China-Myanmar border. The arrival areas of each of these flows resulted in major concentrations of ethnic Chinese: in Haiphong in coastal northern Vietnam; in southern Vietnam around Ho Chi Minh City; in and south of Manila in the Philippines; in pockets on several of the southern islands of the Philippines, including Mindanao; in the Bangkok area; in and immediately north of Yangon; east of Mandalay in northern Myanmar; in several coastal areas on both sides of the Strait of Malacca on the Malay Peninsula and the island of Sumatera; in several large areas on the island of Jawa, and in coastal pockets on the island of Borneo. Secondary concentrations are found adjacent to major concentrations, with particular significance to the widespread presence of ethnic Chinese throughout most of the island of Jawa, in several pockets around the coasts of Sumatera, and spread throughout the Malay Peninsula, most of the larger islands of the Philippines, western Thailand, southern Cambodia, and southernmost Vietnam.

99) Figure 11-18 shows that the island of Borneo consists of territory controlled by the countries of Malaysia, Brunei, and Singapore.

A map of Indonesia indicates the national and provincial capitals, significant urban centers, mountains over 1800 meters tall, transportation networks, economic core area, forests, parks and reserves, and mangrove swamps. The capital of Indonesia is Jakarta, with a population over 10,000,000 and located on the northwest coast of Jawa Island. The provincial capitals of Indonesia are Banda Aceh, Medan, Pekanbaru, Padang, Jambi, Bengkulu, Palembang, Bandar Lampung, and Pangkalpinang on Sumatera; Serang, Bandung, Yogyakarta, Semarang, and Surabaya on Jawa; Denpasar on Bali; Mataram on Lombok; Ambon and Ternate on Maluku; Manado, Gorontalo, Palu, Mamuju, Ujungpandang, and Kendari on Sulawesi; Pontianak, Palangkaraya, Banjarmasin, Samarinda, and Tanjungselor on Borneo. Medan, Palembang, Bangung, Semarang, Surabaya, and Malang each have populations between 1,000,000 and 5,000,000; all the other cities in Indonesia have fewer than 1,000,000 residents; the majority of cities, especially on the smaller islands, are under 250,000 residents. The entire island chain is dotted with mountains over 1800 meters in elevation. Road and rail networks except on Jawa are rather sparse, typically connecting cities in a linear fashion. On Jawa, roads and rail networks interconnect cities across the island. The entire island of Jawa is designated as the economic core area of Indonesia. The islands are subdivided into three main types of terrain: forest, parks and reserves, and areas of human activity. Coastal Sumatera, all of Jakarta, corridors reaching inland from the large coastal cities on Borneo and Sulawesi, and the vast majority of the smaller Lesser Sunda Islands are designated as main areas of human activity. Inland areas of Sumatera, Borneo, and most of Sulawesi, as well as most of the land area of the Malukus and New Guinea, are areas of forests, parks and reserves. Mangrove swamps make up much of the west and northeast coasts of Borneo, and are also found in coastal areas of Sumatera along the Strait of Malacca as well as along the southwestern coast of New Guinea. An inset map of Brunei marks the oil fields and gas fields, most of which are offshore in the South China Sea. The scale bar indicates the small size of Brunei and the proximity of the offshore fields; Brunei is barely 60 kilometers across at its widest, and the offshore oil fields are within 20 kilometers of the coast.
