Origin Bali Nyonya (or Native Chinese/Qiao Sheng) refers to the descendants of the Ming Dynasty of China who settled in the early fifteenth century in the areas of Mangaraja (Malacca), Manggapuyi, and Murofushi (Indonesia and Singapore). Bali Nyonya also includes a small number of Tang people who settled in the area during the Tang and Song dynasties, but there is no source of evidence to prove that Tang people settled in the area during the Tang and Song dynasties, so Bali Nyonya is generally referred to as the descendants of the Ming dynasty.
