China, the land of ancestors

I was chatting with dad about our 'hometown' in People's Republic of China from which my paternal family clan emigrated to different corners of the world hundreds of years ago, including to Indonesia. My late grandfather, he said, used to remind his 11 children of paying a visit to their ancestors' homeland once they grew up and had enough money. At the time, they were leading a modest life in Pontianak, Borneo island. I'll make the dream come true; it's somewhere in the southern part of China.
