The Influence of Chinese Culture–Poetry to Southeast Asian Ethnic Chinese Writers

James Na Teng Choon

Abstract

The poet James (Teng Choon) Na characterized the unique feel of Filipino Chinese literature as traceable to its Southeast Asian roots. He discussed the hibernation of Philippine-Chinese literature, Philippine-Chinese literature under the guidance of the mass media, and new avenues for the development of Philippine-Chinese literature. He concluded with an optimistic note that Philippine-Chinese literature will flourish despite the challenges of the times.
