   It would be nice if there was a website that was organized like Google Directory specializing in academic bibliographies like the one you just posted. (Hopefully, this is the part where someone points out that a site like this already exists and provides a link.)

   Chinese Community in Fiji recently celebrated a historically flawed 150th anniversary; based on the account of a single Chinese sailor.

   Dixon Seeto, President of Fiji Chineses Association claims that incident occured. Click to read article.

   I have yet to come across, any pieces of colloborating evidence in the form of log books, or mentions by any other vessel in Fiji at the time. Circa 1840-1850.

   Dixon Seeto claims the vessel berthed in Levuka. Why was such a maritime feat be recorded for prosperity by any of the Levuka residents who themselves were accomplished mariners?

   It is way beyond comprehension for me to imagine; how a seaman could single handedly Captain a vessel in Fiji’s reef infested waters; at the height of the Cannibal Wars.

   This argurement of Chinese preceeding Indian migrants must be
   scruntinzed futher and verified with science. In the absence of clear evidence, this 150th year claim by the Fiji Chinese Community is no more accurate, than any other legend.

   Can anyone enlighten me?

   I am linking this useful web page to the online Chinese Cultures Abroad WWW Virtual Library.
