Abstract

Due to the geographical and cultural proximity to Vietnam, the Chinese often came to settle in Vietnam early in large numbers. Most of the local governments in Vietnam had their own rules for managing the Chinese in Vietnam. During the French colonial period, the French authorities signed many agreements with China, including contents on the management of the Chinese in Vietnam. These agreements later became an obstacle to the State of Vietnam’s desire of completely control all matters concerning the Hoa (established in 1949). This article deals with the decentralization of powers between the French government and the Vietnamese government in managing the Chinese issue in Vietnam. Thereby, highlighting the characteristics of the Hoa management policy of the French colonial government and of the State of Vietnam in the period of 1948-1954.
