What does it mean to be Chinese? How Chinese am I? These questions on ethnic identity are explored in a permanent exhibition at the Chinese Heritage Centre. Called Chinese More Or Less: An Exhibition on Overseas Chinese Identity, the 6,000 sq ft exhibition is a central attraction at the Centre.
Community support and outreach
Exhibitions and activities at the Chinese Heritage Centre aim to help visitors better understand the ethnic Chinese communities in different parts of the world.
The Centre, first established as a non-profit organisation in 1995, was reconstituted as an autonomous research centre of Nanyang Technological University in 2011. It has remained self-sustaining, depending on fund-raising from private donors and government grants.
As the first and currently the only university research centre in the world outside China, the Centre specialises in the study of the overseas Chinese. The Centre has occupied a unique position serving as a bridge between the University and the community and is the only one-of-its-kind platform to launch research and community outreach projects.
The Nantah legacy
Set within Nanyang Technological University in Jurong West, the Centre’s historic surroundings are perfectly suited to its cause. It is housed in the former Nanyang University Administration Building, which was built in 1953 and was gazetted as a National Monument in 1999.
Nanyang University (or ‘Nantah’), as it was then known, was the first and only Chinese university outside China, and was founded by overseas Chinese.
Idyllic surroundings
Today, you can explore the grounds of this historic site and admire the building’s architecture from the 1950s. The pretty Yunnan Garden and the Nantah Lake just in front of the Centre are worth a stroll too.
