中國的傳統文化中，“自強不息”絕對是一個不可或缺的重要部分。
雖然，這種在最艱難的逆境中也絕不放棄對美好生活追求的品質，並非僅僅只是中國人的專屬，但是毫不誇張的講，只要有中國人的地方，就一定有“自強不息”的精神和“奮鬥不止”的故事！
這一點，我們從近期美國網友所提出的“為什麼看不到有華人血統的印尼女傭？”這樣的一個疑問後的網友回答中，便能夠輕易瞥見。
My grandmother was born in Fujian, China.She moved to Indonesia at a young age and ended up working as a maid for somany years, she doesn’t know how to read. My grandfather was a toilet cleanerand was also born in the same province as my grandmother, didn’t even graduateelementary school.
我的奶奶出生在中國福建。她年輕的時候就搬到了印度尼西亞，最後做了很多年的女傭，她不識字。我的爺爺是一名廁所清潔工，和我的奶奶出生在同一個省份，甚至連小學都沒有畢業。
They saved tons of money and didn’t wasteanything. My dad told me that he used to eat cold rice, tahu and tempe, andcheap food. He used to help his parents selling ice cream, newspaper. They keepanything that can be sold like aqua bottles, paper, etc.
他們省下了大量的錢，沒有浪費任何東西。我爸爸告訴我，他過去常吃冷飯、豆腐、豆餅和便宜的食物。他過去常常幫助他的父母賣冰淇淋、報紙。他們會留下任何可以賣的東西，比如瓶子、廢紙等等。
After years of working as a maid, theystarted a small business, bought a house. When my dad was 17, he went to Canadafor university, later the US for his master degree.
在做了多年的女傭後，他們創辦了一家小企業，買了一棟房子。我父親17歲的時候，他去了加拿大大學，後來在美國攻讀碩士學位。
My grandparents are already dead. However,they lived comfortably during their retirement and had several houses, not justone.
我的祖父母已經死了。然而，他們在退休時生活得很舒適，有幾所房子，而不僅僅只有一所。
I am so glad that I don’t have to strugglelike they did and I absolutely appreciate their sacrifice. I feel ashamed thatI don’t have to do anything else except finishing my engineering degree inCanada.
我很高興我不用像他們那樣掙扎，我非常感激他們的犧牲。我覺得很慚愧，除了完成我的工程學位，我什麼都不用做。
There were tons of Chinese maids, but theyworked hard and didn’t waste any cent.
有很多中國女傭，但她們工作很努力，沒有浪費任何一分錢。
I am not ashamed that my grandparents weremaids. They worked hard and they acquired their money. I am proud that theyaccomplished something that most people can only dream of.
我不為我的祖父母是女性而感到羞恥。他們努力工作，得到了錢。我很自豪他們完成了大多數人只能夢想的事情。
[My brief background] Hi, I’m Chinesedescendant, born and grew up in Indonesia. My mother’s n father’s family wereboth poor. They had to split 1 small salted fish to be eaten with 8 othersiblings, with porridge, so yeah they were poor.
[個人簡介]你好，我是華裔，在印度尼西亞出生和長大。我父母家都很窮。他們必須把一條小鹹魚和其他8個兄弟姐妹就着稀飯一起分吃，所以是的，他們很窮。
[Answer] actually there are a few Chinesehousemaids in Indonesia but I’m sure outsiders will rarely see that.
[回答]其實印尼有一些華人女傭，但我相信外人很少會看到。
Because:
因為：
1、Poor Chinesegirls will mostly stay at home for cleaning, helping her parents making snacksto be sold. while the boys will go out to a far place to make money.
1、貧困的華人女孩大多呆在家裏打掃衞生，幫父母做些點心賣。而男孩們則會去很遠的地方賺錢。
2、As far as I know,Chinese in Indonesia are very good at taking care of their hygiene and looks.So if they are not highly educated, they can still be waitress or sales girl.
2、據我所知，在印尼的華人非常注重衞生和外表。所以如果他們沒有受過高等教育，他們仍然可以去幹服務員或銷售小姐。
3、Since we areminority in this country, we are functioning like a big cooperative. So when aChinese owned store/company has a vacancy, it will be spread among familiesfirst, then among closes chinese friends. That also works for the maid vacancy:it will be filled by family/relatives that can be trusted more than outsiders.
3、因為我們是這個國家的少數民族，所有我們像一個大合作社一樣運作。因此，當一家華人開的商店/公司出現空缺時，它會首先在家族中找人頂替，然後在親密的華人朋友中找人頂替。這也適用於女傭空缺：它將由比外人更值得信任的家庭/親戚來填補。
3、Rohana Siti,
My Father in Law sell salt in market.. Hehas a chinesse worker, but he already quit along ago, and now he has a stall insame market, Pasar Legi Solo.. And his bussiness (chinesse descendant) grow bignow.. Many of them are a hard worker..
我岳父在市場上賣鹽。他僱過一個華人工人，但他早就辭職了，現在他在同一個市場（中爪哇梭羅市場）擺了一個攤位。並且他（華人）的生意現在做大了。他們中的許多人都很勤奮。
1、In era Orba (OrdeLama) Chinesse descendant is difficult to be civil servant, so many of themchoose to be traders..
1、在“舊秩序”時代，華裔很難當公務員，所以很多人選擇了從商。
2、In Indonesia,white is beauty, many chinesse descendant has a white skin, so it will feelstrange or awkward if we have maid or laborer from chinesse descendant.
2、在印度尼西亞，白色是美麗的，很多華裔後代都有白色的皮膚，所以如果我們僱傭華裔的女傭或勞工，會感到奇怪或尷尬的（暴殄天物）。
3、A long time ago,they are an emigrant from a far place, which have difficult condition to livein stranger country like Indonesia. And many of Chinesse descendant is a hardworking.
3、很久以前，他們是遠渡重洋的移民，在印度尼西亞這樣的陌生國家生活，條件艱難。而且很多華裔都很努力工作。
The Chinese Indonesian community came as traders and brought aculture of egalitarian entrepreneurship with them. While the Javanese emergedfrom a hierarchical subservient society and brought that to the table.
印尼華人社區的華人們以商人的身份來到這裏，並帶來了平等的創業文化。而爪哇人則是從一個等級森嚴的奴隸社會中崛起的，並把這一特點也提上了（當代的）議事日程。
It’s asrare to meet an entrepreneurial driven javanese as it is to meet a subservientaccepting Chinese indoensian. Also the strong family networks in Chinese indoensiancommunities, helps ensure that entrepreneurial spirit can find the financialsupport it needs and trading networks to flourish and survive, while javanesefamily networks dependent on patronage and support have the reverse effect
遇到一個有企業家精神的爪哇人，就像遇到一個逆來順受的華裔印尼人一樣罕見。此外，華裔印尼人社區強大的家族網絡，有助於確保企業家精神能夠找到繁榮和生存所需的財政支持和交易網絡，而依賴贊助和支持的爪哇家族網絡卻具有與之相反的效果
I hope my answer doesn’t offend anyone asit is not intended to, but rather is based on observation.
我希望我的答案不會冒犯任何人，因為我不是故意這樣説的，而是基於觀察。
5、C. Michel de Wilde
being maid is not a traditional job thatchinese people will choose, even if they are from relatively low economicclass. They probably prefer to make money through trades, no matter how smallthe margins are.
做女傭不是華人會選擇的傳統工作，即使他們來自相對較低的經濟階層。他們可能更喜歡通過做生意賺錢，不管利潤有多小。
6、Albert Kam
I’m Chinesedescendant，my mom used to be a hired maid for anotherchinesefamily, doing household chores, doing babysitting. Afterthat, she went into doing factory works along with garment side projects.
我是華裔，我媽媽曾經當過另一個華人家庭的女傭，做家務，照看小孩。在那之後，她開始從事工廠的工作和服裝方面的項目。
So i guess it’s not 100% true that thereare no chinese maids. Continuous self-improvement is the instinct of Chinese people.
所以我想，説“沒有華裔女傭”並不是100%正確。不斷自我完善是中國人的本能。
7、Timothy Soh
I’ve seen domestics helpers who are Chinesedescent hailing from Surabaya.
我看到過來自泗水的華人家庭傭工。
She lives in a small house next to a creekand my mom hired her as cook for our family. But since fifteen years ago, shedecided to leave the job and building her own small food catering business.
她住在一條小溪邊的一所小房子裏，我媽媽僱她為我們家做飯。但15年前，她決定放棄這份工作，轉去創辦自己的小型餐飲企業。
當然，對於這樣一種盛行於華人圈子的“奇特的現象”，外國網友同樣也給出了自己眼中的答案！
1、flight
I think everything is decided by education. Chinesedescendant attach great importance to education.
我認為一切都取決於教育。華裔非常重視教育。
2、The Last of the Mohicans
Yes, they have brought their own cultural traditions to the world, including education!
是的，他們把自己的文化傳統帶到了全世界，包括教育！
Chinese people prefer to spend their time earning wealth, rather than just being obsessed with enjoyment. Their sense of family responsibility is very strong, and family stability can bring wealth savings.
中國人更願意將時間花費在賺取財富上，而不像我們只是痴迷於享受，他們的家庭責任感十分強大，家庭的穩定能夠帶來財富的積蓄。
4、North American Wizards
From the crime rate, we can know why the Chinesedescendant can always develop, obey the order and work silently. The nation is worthy of awe.
從犯罪率來看，我們可以知道為什麼華裔總是能夠發展，服從命令，默默地工作。這個民族值得敬畏。
5、Asroq Khotaminur
I am surprised that they never fear hard work. I am sure that their sincere work is enough to make any nation in the world feel ashamed!
我很驚訝他們從不害怕艱苦的工作。我相信他們真誠的工作，足以讓世界上任何一個民族感到羞愧！
6、Arif Affandi
Although I don’t like Chinese restaurants very much, I am always willing to make friends with friendly Chinese people, which makes me feel safe.So they have no reason to stay at the bottom of society!
雖然我不太喜歡中國餐館，但我總是願意和友好的中國人交朋友，這讓我感到安全。所以他們沒有理由一直處於社會底層！
7、Wirawan
Most of the time, they are full of wisdom, not just like the mob in the black area, Only robbery！
大多數時候，他們充滿智慧，不只是像黑區的暴徒一樣，只是搶劫！
Perhaps we all forget that China has been full of pride in the past two thousand years, so they must not be satisfied with being servants!
也許我們都忘記了中國在過去的兩千年裏充滿了驕傲，所以他們不會滿足於做傭人！
顯然，從歷史角度對現象進行分析的印尼網友“Bala Pilla”可謂一語中的：中國在過去的兩千年裏充滿了驕傲，所以中國人不會滿足於做傭人。
即使，這些已經是走出了中國的華裔。
遠渡重洋一無所有又怎樣？一條小鹹魚和8個兄弟姐妹就着稀飯一起分吃的貧窮又怎樣？
再窘迫，華人依舊十分注重自己的衞生和外表。
在艱難，華人即使砸鍋賣鐵也不會讓自己的子孫淪為文盲。
然後，他們在默默地工作下逐漸的集聚了屬於自己的財富，正如外國網友“Albert Kam”所説：不斷自我完善是中國人的本能！
鐵血軍事，不打官腔，態度鮮明，客觀理性。
在這裏，瞭解大國的權謀鬥爭；
在這裏，見識武器真正的威力；
在這裏，做一個真正的愛國者
