The Gin,[2] or Jing people,[3] (Chinese: 京族, Sino-Vietnamese: Kinh tộc; Vietnamese: người Kinh tại Trung Quốc) are a community of descendants of ethnic Vietnamese people living in China. They mainly live in an area called the Jing Islands (京族三岛), off the coast of Dongxing, Fangchenggang, in the Chinese autonomous region of Guangxi. These territories were administered by the Nguyễn dynasty but were later ceded by the French to the Qing dynasty due to the 1887 convention, after the Sino-French war.
The Việt were labelled Yue (Chinese: 越族; pinyin: Yuèzú, Sino-Vietnamese: Việt tộc; Vietnamese: người Việt tại Trung Quốc) before the introduction of the names "Kinh", "Gin", or "Jing", in 1958.[4]
The Gin population was 33,112 as of 2020.[1] This number does not include the 36,205 Vietnamese nationals studying or working in Mainland China, recorded by the 2010 national population census.[5]
