The third characteristic of the development of the relationship between the two groups of gangs and tides is that the name is Fujian gang and Chaozhou gang, but its connotation does not cover the whole province of Fujian or Chaozhou. In order to make the name and the real match, in history, both groups have tried to expand the geographical scope of the group. During the reorganization of the halls in 1927~1929, Fujian’s members’ advertisements were clearly announced. It is advisable to “break the habits, not to be afraid of the head and tail, regardless of the size of the head, regardless of the size of the slope, regardless of the government, namely Yanping, Jianning, Tingzhou, Shaowu, The difference between Fuzhou, Xinghua, Quanzhou and Zhangzhou is also attempted. By expanding the membership's place of origin, the museum will be built into a public institution that covers the entire province of Fujian. However, from the efforts of the chairman of the Fujian Club, Liu Liu, (1950~1972), Fuzhou, Xinghua, and Fujianese guest compatriots joined the club. The attempt to expand the border of the ancestral home of the club was basically a failure. In 1927, the Chaos Group organized the Chaozhou Overseas Chinese Organization. Does the new group include the gossip about Chaozhou dialect, or the Shiyan including the guest Tai Po and Feng Shun? After a difficult meeting, the party was finally named as the gossip, which is the origin of the “Singapore Chaozhou Bagua Club”. From the results of the attempt to expand the borders of the ancestral homes by the two gangs, it is difficult to break through the barriers between the Chinese ethnic groups, and the ethnic prejudice implicit in them is: small groups join the large group, fearing to provoke the "crawling" suspicion, becoming a second-class ethnic group . However, large groups absorb small groups, and they fear that because of language and cultural differences, they will increase their "no" and affect ethnic unity.

Basically Hokkien Huay Guan from 1920s to 1950s or 70s invited Hokkiens from whole province including Fuzhou Henghua etc and even Hakkas from Hokkien province to join Hokkien Huay Guan but the attempts resulted in failure.

Poor Hokkiens wanted to be inclusive but kena rejected by the smaller groups.

Basically the smaller groups do not want to join because they do not want to play second fiddle to Hokkiens in a large group.

A typical example of super-interaction is the welcoming event that is dominated by Chaobang, Guang, Ke, and Qiong. The welcoming event is a large-scale religious cultural celebration of the Chinese people in the 19th century. Because of its large and strong organization, it has the function of integrating the social groups and is an important "window" for observing the relationship between the early Chinese. Hokkien people have a lot of power, the game will be handled by the gang alone. Chao, Guang, Ke, Qiong the four groups’ financial resources are weak, and belong to the same province of Guangdong, the game will be led by the Teochews, the other three groups to co-organize the way to form a tour God and Guangdong help the two organizations of the gods. The Cantonese help gods are centered on the Yuehai Qing Temple, and the four gangs celebrate the feast;

Basically due to weaker financial resources, Teochews Cantonese Hakkas and Hainanese groups will gang up to do the religious processions in Spore. While Hokkien group will do the religious procession by itself.

In conclusion, smaller dialect groups only want to gang up together with smaller groups for a purpose but will not want to join into a big dialect group even if invited!

Poor Hokkien TOP philanthropists always helped everyone but get mocked and insulted by evil ingrates in return AFTER taking our contribution and charity.
