Interesting to see the Southeast Asian connection: as transit (Vietnam & Thailand), and of course like us, mainly from the south of China

chinese diaspora influence on the development of reggae music is indisputable > there are quite a few great articles on this, e.g.
https://spinditty.com/genres/Chinese-of-Jamaica-pioneers-of-reggae-music or
https://daily.bandcamp.com/lists/chinese-jamaican-influence-on-classic-reggae-list

i would like to add that the success of both dancehall and dubstep was driven by records labels run by chinese, too
