Maybe some of my followers can help me with this #question.
I remember reading about Chinese diaspora labour organisations, some sort of mutual aid society type thing, or proto-unions. However, though I remember they had a name, I forgot what it was and I'm finding it impossible to google for it. Anyone knows?
