Well, by the time the Chinese arrived in Monterey in the 1800's Monterey
had already come under American control. I can see why they'd come to
Monterey, there's still abundant fish in the seas here (until the 1940's
Sardines were the main canning industry, but they suddenly dissappeared).
Squid fishing is still practiced here. Modern boats can be seen out on the
bay with their bright white and green lights at night. So, the economic
benfits are good for the Chinese, and Montreianos as i have them designed
are very welcoming of Immigrants.
