both philippines and vietnam actually are a bit hush hush on the true numbers of their ethnic and mixed chinese populations since ph for example, does not actually ever take any ethnic-based census and most mixed and pure/majority ethnic chinese filipino mostly primarily speak english and tagalog and/or their respective dominant regional language and most often identify as just filipino anyways, not like any official body ever asks anything but your citizenship anyways. in reality, nat geo made a genographic study last 2005 and they found that around 36% of the average filipino genepool has east asian components,... which historically points to none other than colonial-era mestizo de sangley and modern-day chinese filipinos

it is because many are assimilated in thailand and identify as thai. in philippines and vietnam, this is the same case. many chinese descendants identify as simply filipino or kinh vietnamese

sadly some of our biggest top richest taipan billionaire chinese filipinos of the philippines have recently died of (maybe) old age (or idk) this covid season last 2020 and this 2021, such as Henry Sy (his fortune is now divided to his many children), John Gokongwei Jr, Danding Cojuanco, etc. the top big taipans left are guys like Lucio Tan, Tony Tan Caktiong(founder/owner of Jollibee corp), etc.

lol many southeast asian countries were richer many decades ago than the big countries these days, plus they are easy bridge to migrate to the country of their former colonizer
