Everyone has greed, some just give up after realising that they do not have have IQ for it, so might as well appear non-greedy to hide their lower IQ.

How can there be no greed in genes? The very existence and survival of genes is programmed with greed. FACT.

Wah I thought you very authoritative anthropologist.But now that you end your sentence with FACT spelled in caps it lends extra gravitas of an all conquering truth that this clip ...http://www.ted.com/talks/frans_de_waal_do_animals_have_morals.html... lacks.

Most Likely Yue

They would be closer to the Yue than to the Han

Yah, not a surprise. Chinese from the north have longer torso. Not nice leh.

It seems the DNA is the same for those in Taiwan and in China. I've read it somewhere and there is even a documentary on Discovery.

Who are you referring to ? Han or Malay ? The Chinese have very slight change in their DNAs, not so different. Our mothers may have more southerners genes. Mediacorpse's Liang Kai Xin reporter looked very Malay.

i saw the timeline and the ming dynasty ruled taiwan in the 1600s.

Yes.

But before 1600's only the aborigines lived in Taiwan. Unfortunately, like many aboriginal tribes, they d not have a written law and they have no idea that land can be owned by individuals. When Europeans ruled Taiwan, they had only the aborigines to deal with. They were on the islands 8000 years before invaded by the chinese during the Ming Dynasty.

So best the Chinese return the islands back to the original people.

Do you know that until recently, the native people of taiwan were forced to use only mandarin names?

You sure that only taiwan has the native ppl? I am sure they came from yunan.

Nothing new. Native ppl of lands get displaced. Happens everywhere. Australia, new zealand even the orang asli got displaced by the malays too. Do you feel for all of these people?
