In the 1850s and 1860, about 2,500 Chinese went to Suriname. Most of these migrants were indentured laborers. | |||
In the late 1950s and 1960s, other Chinese came as free laborers, traders or shop assistants. A large number of Chinese came in the 1990s, and immigration is still going. <ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Surinamese</ref> | |||
