Growing Roots Chinese Refuge - a podcast by RNZ

Seventy five years ago several hundred Chinese women and children arrived in New Zealand, fleeing the Japanese invasion of China. These were the wives and children of the Chinese men already here. The 75th anniversary of their arrival in New Zealand is being celebrated in Auckland. Lynda Chanwai-Earle and Justin Gregory hear from some of these eyewitnesses.
