Beside Huaiyuan Lake in the Autou Community of Jinhai Subdistrict, Xiang’an District, an ancient Western-style villa with red walls and majestic Roman columns stands quietly, gazing at the rising and falling tides. The vigorous calligraphy of the lintel inscription “我行我素” (Wo Xing Wo Su, I Follow My Way) strikes the eye, while the scattered bullet holes of varying depths on the mottled walls engrave a period of wartime history—this is “Wo Su Lu,” the former residence of the Singaporean diaspora leader Jiang Jifu.

In the Central Park of Jimei New Town, the Jimei Tower stands quietly with its red pillars and golden tiles. It is not only a geographical landmark of Jimei New Town but a spiritual monument—a place where time pauses and dialogue grows. Every Qiaopi letter and every relic of Tan Kah Kee displayed here silently narrates the sincerity of “Loving the Country like Life itself”; meanwhile, the sound of reading echoing through Jimei School Village today makes the century-old soul of the diaspora shine brilliantly in the new era.

In the Haicang District of Xiamen lies Xin’an Village, an ancient settlement spanning some 100.25 hectares. As one of Xiamen’s first designated “Traditional Villages,” its DNA is encoded with two distinct strands: the world-renowned “Five Ancestors Fist” (Wuzuquan) Kung Fu and the indelible mark of the Overseas Chinese diaspora. The story of this village is a saga of migration born from turmoil, and a legend of cross-border heritage written in the ink of overseas capital and the spirit of martial valor.
