"Singapore Eurasians: Memories, Hopes and Dreams offers insight into the Singapore Eurasian community, one of Singapore's minority communities. Though small, the Eurasian community has undoubtedly played a big part in Singapore's nation-building. This book is the definitive record of Eurasian history and heritage in Singapore, and serves to educate the younger generation of Eurasians about their roots, the community's achievements and its collective hopes and dreams for the future, as well as provide a useful resource for others to learn more about the Eurasian community. In addition, Singapore Eurasians: Memories, Hopes and Dreams also covers the growth and developments of the Eurasian community within the last 25 years, and how the Eurasian Association (EA), as a Self-Help Group since 1994, has been helping the less fortunate through its programmes, as well as being the main force in driving the preservation and sharing of the Eurasian culture for its future generations. In preserving the history, heritage, hopes and dreams of the Singapore Eurasian community, this book is an effort in contributing to the country's continued multiracial harmony and appreciation of the many elements that make up Singapore's story"--

Aaron Johnson, a Royal Air Force pilot as well as an English gentleman, was on a secret mission to Borneo during the Indonesian Confrontation in 1964. He told his superior he never intended to stay. After meeting a young Asian girl, he fell in love with her and would do anything for her, so decided to settle down in this country permanently. He thought he found eternal love. Years later, it turned out to be a disastrous marriage. Not only did he have to deal with his wife, but he also had to confront his two sons, who had become notorious hustlers. Decades later, a mild-mannered lawyer turned lobbyist, William Stewart, fell in love with Aarons daughter, Theresa. Time and time again, he tried to win her heart. Feeling sorrow and hopelessness, he had an unexpected surprise that changed his life forever. Both Aaron and William were caught and gripped by the islands cultural and environmental issues and overridden by greedy business interests, which locked together their love story while being raged in the Land below the Wind.

Eurasians at the Grassroots - Vol.1 is a collection of short stories regarding Eurasians and the memories of Eurasians. Its purpose is to collect and publish stories as a collective work about Eurasians, by Eurasians and for Eurasians. It is intended for this publication to consist of a collection of stories about the background, history, culture and heritage of the average Eurasian family. It is not intended for this publication to be about famous or historical Eurasian figures, but to include stories from the grassroots of the Eurasian society. The stories were contributed by people from Malaysia and outside Malaysia; and about all aspects of Eurasian heritage and culture from Malaysia and all over the world. Most people understand the term Eurasian as simply a hybrid between European and Asian. Many more do not understand the term at all and others simply find it curious why there is a need to categorise such a race at all. In this part of the world, Eurasians refers to people of mixed Asian and European ancestry. They are descended from colonial times of the Portuguese, Dutch and British. The Portuguese descendants, who mostly have their roots in Malacca, call themselves Kristang. There are also Dutch and British descent Eurasians in Malaysia and Singapore. However, there are also Eurasians whose ancestors were from other parts of Europe, such as Spain, Germany and France, who came out East with the ships of the Colonial powers of their time. We must not also leave out the Eurasians in The Netherlands who came from Indonesia. From an article received, we now also know that there were Eurasians from China. These days, in the advent of a globalised world, there are Eurasians living in practically every corner of the globe. Therefore, it is a joy to find that we have here contributors from near and far. There are articles from those in Malaysia, Singapore, as well as from Australia, The Netherlands and USA. This makes a good start to what should be the first in a series of articles on the Eurasians and we look forward to expand the project in the future to collect more of such stories. It will help to provide a better understanding of the heritage and culture of the Eurasians and a glimpse to view our many similarities. It also provides valued information on the many individuals and sub-groups of Eurasians for the sake of putting their stories on record for the benefit of the future generations.

The famous author Rudyard Kipling once wrote, "East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet." Yet they have met in the Eurasian people, blending cultures and world views profoundly alien to each other. From the surprising blend of flavours in Eurasian cuisine to their distinctive language and customs, synthesis and fusion are the keywords that define the Eurasian people, long before the concept was popularised by the rise of the global village. What does it mean to be Eurasian? Bridging the traditional divide between East and West, the Eurasian people are able to draw on an unmatched wealth of traditions for inspiration in the arts and cuisine. Join us on a voyage of discovery as we explore the rich and unique heritage of a true world culture in this part of the Asiapac Culture series!

‘Within the borders of these isles shall remain a race one calls Indo. Neither white, nor brown.’ This ‘Indo’ was part of the Indo-Europeans, a group of mixed indigenous and European ancestry, from the former Dutch East Indies. In almost all other Asian colonies, including British India and French Indochina, which are also covered in this study, such a group of mixed ancestry came into being. The future of these Eurasians after decolonisation was quite insecure. The European rulers, on which their status was based, were gone. The new indigenous rulers perceived them suspiciously as colonial remnants and often even as traitors. In this chaotic situation, they were forced to make a choice, between staying in the former colony or leaving for the European mother country. Did they belong in the country of their European fathers or the former colony, the country of their Asian mothers?

In the second half of the nineteenth century, global labor migration, trade, and overseas study brought China and the United States into close contact, leading to new cross-cultural encounters that brought mixed-race families into being. Yet the stories of these families remain largely unknown. How did interracial families negotiate their identities within these societies when mixed-race marriage was taboo and “Eurasian” often a derisive term? In Eurasian, Emma Jinhua Teng compares Chinese-Western mixed-race families in the United States, China, and Hong Kong, examining both the range of ideas that shaped the formation of Eurasian identities in these diverse contexts and the claims set forth by individual Eurasians concerning their own identities. Teng argues that Eurasians were not universally marginalized during this era, as is often asserted. Rather, Eurasians often found themselves facing contradictions between exclusionary and inclusive ideologies of race and nationality, and between overt racism and more subtle forms of prejudice that were counterbalanced by partial acceptance and privilege. By tracing the stories of mixed and transnational families during an earlier era of globalization, Eurasian also demonstrates to students, faculty, scholars, and researchers how changes in interracial ideology have allowed the descendants of some of these families to reclaim their dual heritage with pride.
