[edit] Population
i think the chinese jamaican population is much larger than that. including the thousands that live outside of jamaica like america the uk and canada. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.19.12.199 (talk) 22:31, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
- The 55,000 is only referring to the number of Chinese Jamaicans living in Jamaica, according to the Jamaican census from 2000. It would be hard to determine how many live overseas. Blackjays1 06:05, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I just noticed a mistake and corrected it. I came up with the number 55,000 from the Demographics of Jamaica page. The total population of Jamaica was estimated as 2,750,000 and the percentage of Chinese Jamaicans was estimated as 0.2%. I multiplied 2,750,000 by 0.02, but 0.02 = 2.0%, not 0.2%. So I corrected the number by moving the decimal down, so the real number is around 5500. I know the number seems small, but stats are stats. Blackjays1 (talk) 01:30, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] ok.
