The first chinese came to Cuba in 1847 as indentured labor for
the sugar plantations. Some chinese came from California to set up
grocery stores.War and communist revolution in china brought waves...
The chinese population numbered about 200,000 at its peak.
Since the 'second' communist revolution in Cuba,the young generation
moved to Miami, New York and other places..
