摘要
潮汕移民暹罗约在宋元时代开始,而于明清为最。基于传统道德、文化观念,每有积蓄,必千方百计送到家乡,以赡养家人骨肉,原始的"侨批"由此产生。侨批业的产生约在1782年,以后慢慢地又产生当地送批人,于是暹罗、潮汕批局真正应运而生。考察批业历史,其兴衰的过程不仅反映了中泰两国金融、政治方面的历史状况,也可看出华侨对家乡的深厚情感和所做的巨大贡献。
Due to their traditional moral standards and cultural notions, the immigrants of Chaoshao area in Siam would try their best to remit their savings home in order to provide for their relatives. Gradually, the primitive 'remittance by overseas Chinese' was established. At the beginning, remittance was mainly completed through the fellow villagers. But gradually, the relatively professional shuike 水客 or ketou 客头 appeared, who were the nongovernmental remittance carriers. In the late 18th century, there arose the agents. And then, the local remittance carriers came into being. This way, the remittance businesses in Siam and Chaoshan emerged as the times required.
