Chinese Village in the City Pariaman

One corner of the town of Pariaman. This area is called Kampung China (village Chinese). Previously, Chinese ethnic settled this area. Until the freedom struggle of Indonesia (1945), Chinese ethnic, doing a massive exodus from this city. At that time, Chinese ethnic, many are killed by Indonesian freedom fighters. Murder of Chinese ethnic done because many of those who become spies Dutch colonial. So fighters Indonesia, catch a spy, and then through the military court, all these spy sentenced to death.
Unfortunately, some historians write, this event is stated as Chinese ethnic cleansing in Pariaman. That was a mistake in the writing of history. Because it is not just a spy from the Chinese ethnic sentenced to death, but all the spies who worked for the colonial Dutch, regardless of ethnic background. And indeed, at that time, almost all these spies are derived from Chinese ethnic.
As a result, to date there is no Chinese ethnic in Pariaman. Perhaps, this is the only city in Indonesia that no Chinese ethnic, and perhaps also the world.
