新加坡圣诞岛有多少人
㈠ 简述圣诞岛的地形地势特点
圣诞岛,距离澳大利亚西部城市珀斯2600公里,印尼首都雅加达以南500公里,过去是新加坡管辖的岛屿,面积135平方公里,岛上盛产磷酸盐(磷矿)。殖民地政府从新马召募劳工到岛上开采磷矿。1957年在澳大利亚的请求之下,英国政府决定将圣诞岛割让给澳大利亚。传统上岛上居民大部分是圣诞岛磷酸盐矿开采有限公司的雇员,这些居民主要来自新加坡和科科斯群岛的劳工,后来就逐渐定居在圣诞岛,2008年圣诞岛共有人口1960人,其中70%的人口为华人。

(圣诞岛地形图)
该岛是海底火山的顶部。岛上地势陡峭,最高峰是摩雷山(Murray Hill),海拔361米,位于岛的西部。全岛属于热带海洋性气候,平均气温21-32度,年平均降水量2600毫米,岛屿大部分地区覆盖着热带雨林,海岸线长80公里,沿岸大多为悬崖峭壁,仅有浅滩约13处,最大的一处名为飞鱼湾(Flying Fish Cove),位于圣诞岛的北部,是岛内惟一港口和人口主要聚居地、主要港口。
㈡ 圣诞岛是在什么地方呐
一.
圣诞岛(英语:Christmas lsland)是澳大利亚位于印度洋的海外领地,面积135平方公里,位于印度洋东北部,为火山岛。北距印尼首都雅加达约500公里,东南距澳大利亚西岸的珀斯约2,600公里,东距科科斯(基林)群岛975公里。
有大概1,493人居住在圣诞岛,大部分居住在岛北部的几个定居点:飞鱼湾、银城、Poon Saan和Drumsite。圣诞岛是大中华区以外全球仅有的两个华人为主的地区 (另一为新加坡) ,官方语言为英语,华人间通行粤语。
二.
圣诞岛(基里巴斯语:Kiritimati,即圣诞岛的意思)是太平洋的一个珊瑚礁,太平洋上最大环礁,位于莱恩群岛,陆地面积为363平方公里,占基里巴斯全国土地的70%,目前人口约有2600人。它在1777年圣诞节前夕由詹姆斯·库克船长发现,所以此岛名为圣诞岛。此岛拥有全世界最大的珊瑚礁,而且是现存最古老的珊瑚礁。在1956年到1962年之间,英美两国在此进行核试。
1970年后开始种植椰子。为夏威夷到塔拉瓦岛航空线的中途停降站。
该岛早期是以丰富的海鸟和磷矿资源闻名于世界,最近,又因子以万计的红蟹栖息而声名大噪。
㈢ 圣诞岛的华人占比85%,海外华人最密集的地区为何属于澳大利亚
首先在条令上已经明确标记圣诞岛是澳大利亚的,其次就是这个地方说白了就是人家的,所以分给人家这也是正常的事情。英属马来亚疆域图。包含了海峡殖民地、马来联邦以及马来属邦三个地区,其中红色区域便是海峡殖民地海峡殖民地的建立,推动了英国殖民地向周边地区的纵深探索,然而没多久就搜索到了这样的区域。
在其独立前后竟然不可思议的劫贫济富,把资源丰富、 华人占多数 、战略位置绝佳的印度洋岛屿圣诞岛让给地广人稀的澳大利亚,新加坡这是玩的哪一出啊,当地的华人莫名其妙成了澳大利亚人。但是人家在保护环境上非常的好,一个螃蟹都没有被澳大利亚人给杀死。
㈣ 圣诞岛有可能回归新加坡吗
没可能,说到海外华人分布最密集的国家或地区,大多数人会想到华人比例高达74%的新加坡。从国家的角度来说,新加坡当之无愧。
从地区的角度来看,并不是。这顶王冠属于圣诞岛,一个印度洋上的小岛。
圣诞岛在哪里(男生圣诞岛微信暗示什么),居住在圣诞岛上的华人比例高达85%。以前的圣诞岛也是新加坡的一部分。
圣诞岛位于印度洋东北部,面积135平方公里。印度尼西亚雅加达以北约500公里,澳大利亚珀斯东南约2600公里。地理上,该岛距离澳大利亚较远,距离东南亚较近。
但实际上,它目前是澳大利亚的海外领地。全岛人口只有2000多人。官方语言是英语,但全岛通用粤语。
㈤ 东南亚人口是多少
2018年,该区域人口共有6.55亿人。
当中有五分之一生活在全球人口最密集的岛屿——爪哇岛。印度尼西亚人口多达2.68亿,乃全球第四。除此之外,目前有近3000万华人生活在东南亚,主要分布在圣诞岛、印度尼西亚、马来西亚、菲律宾、新加坡、泰国以及越南。
东南亚人口最庞大的民族为爪哇族,主要分布在印度尼西亚的爪哇岛,人口过亿。其次为京族,越南的主体民族,人口高达8600万,主要分布在越南,但在邻国柬埔寨及老挝亦是重要的少数民族。泰族则有超过6000万人口,是泰国的主体民族。
缅甸是一个民族相当多元的国家,人口最庞大的民族是缅族,人口有3000多万,占该国人口的三分之二。
印度尼西亚最大的两支民族为爪哇族和巽他族(4000万),其他较大的族群还有马都拉族(800万)、米南佳部人(800万)、布吉人(700万)、巴厘人(400万)、达雅族(630万)、巴塔克人(850万)、印尼马来人(870万)等。
马来西亚人口最大的民族分别是马来族(55%)、华族(23%)、印度族(7%)。但在东马,民族构成则与西马有很大不同,达雅族和达山-杜顺人分别是砂捞越州和沙巴州的最大民族。
东南亚的马来族是跨国民族,除了是西马和文莱是主要民族外,在印度尼西亚、泰国南部、新加坡都是重要的少数民族。
占族并没有自己的国家,但是在越南中部和南部,及柬埔寨中部的重要少数民族。柬埔寨是一个民族较单一的国家,主体民族是高棉族,在越南南部和泰国都有分布。苗族主要分布在越南、老挝和中国的交界处。
菲律宾的民族亦十分多元,当中主要是他加禄人和比萨亚人。
经济
该地区的商品种类繁多,但尤其重要的是胡椒、生姜、丁香和肉豆蔻等香料。
华侨华人社区在该地区经济发展中发挥了重要作用。中国影响力的起源可以追溯到16世纪,当时来自中国南方的华人移民在印度尼西亚、泰国等东南亚国家定居。1949 年共产主义革命后,该地区的华人人口迅速增加,这迫使许多难民移居中国境外。
该地区的经济很大程度上依赖于农业;大米和橡胶长期以来一直是主要出口产品。制造和服务变得越来越重要。
㈥ 圣诞岛---英语介绍
The Territory of Christmas Island is a territory of Australia in the Indian Ocean. It is located 2,600 kilometres (1,600 mi) northwest of the Western Australian city of Perth, 500 km (310 mi) south of the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, and 975 km (606 mi) ENE of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands.
It has a population of approximately 1,600 residents who live in a number of "settlement areas" on the northern tip of the island: Flying Fish Cove (also known as Kampong), Silver City, Poon Saan, and Drumsite.
The island’s geographic isolation and history of minimal human disturbance has led to a high level of endemism amongst its flora and fauna, which is of significant interest to scientists and naturalists.[2]
Phosphate, deposited as Guano, has been mined on the island for many years. 63% of its 135 square kilometres (52 sq mi) is National Park and there are large areas of primary rainforest.
History
British and Dutch navigators first included the island on their charts in the early seventeenth century, and Captain William Mynors of the British East India Company vessel, the Royal Mary, named the island when he arrived on Christmas Day, 25 December 1643.[3] The island first appears on a map proced by Pieter Goos and published in 1666. Goos had labelled the island Mony.[4]
The earliest recorded visit was in March 1688 by William Dampier of the British ship Cygnet, who found it uninhabited.[5] An account of the visit can be found in Dampier's Voyages, which describes how, when trying to reach Cocos from New Holland, his ship was pulled off course in an easterly direction and after 28 days arrived at Christmas Island. Dampier landed at the Dales (on the West Coast) and two of his crewmen were the first recorded people to set foot on Christmas Island.
The next visit was by Daniel Beekman, who described it in his 1718 book, A Voyage to and from the Island of Borneo, in the East Indies.
People
As of 2006, the estimated population is 1,493. (The Australian Bureau of Statistics reports a population of 1,508 as of the 2001 Census.)
The ethnic composition is 70% Chinese (mainly Cantonese), 20% European and 10% Malay. Religions practised on Christmas Island include Buddhism 75%, Christianity 12%, Islam 10% and others 3%. English is the official language, but Cantonese and Malay are also spoken. Both English and Cantonese are lingua franca.

[edit] Postage stamps
Main article: Postage stamps and postal history of Christmas Island
A postal agency was opened on the island in 1901 and sold stamps of the Strait Settlements.[9]
After the Japanese Occupation (1942–1945), postage stamps of the British Military Administration in Malaya were in use, then stamps of Singapore.[10]
In 1958, the island received its own postage stamps after being put under Australian custody. It had a large philatelic and postal independence, managed first by the Phosphate Commission (1958–1969) and then by the Island's Administration (1969–1993).[9] This ended on 2 March 1993 when Australia Post became the island's postal operator: stamps of Christmas Island can be used in Australia and Australian stamps in the island.[10]
[edit] Government
Christmas Island is a non-self governing territory of Australia, administered by the Attorney-General's Department[11] (before November 29, 2007[12] administration was carried out by the Department of Transport and Regional Services). The legal system is under the authority of the Governor-General of Australia and Australian law. An Administrator (Neil Lucas, since 28 January 2006) appointed by the Governor-General represents the monarch and Australia.
The Australian Government provides Commonwealth-level government services through the Christmas Island Administration and the Department of Infrastructure. There is no state government; instead, state government type services are provided by contractors, including departments of the Western Australian Government, with the costs met by the Australian (Commonwealth) Government. A unicameral Shire of Christmas Island with 9 seats provides local government services and is elected by popular vote to serve four-year terms. Elections are held every two years, with half the members standing for election.
Christmas Island residents who are Australian citizens also vote in Commonwealth (federal) elections. Christmas Island residents are represented in the House of Representatives through the Northern Territory Division of Lingiari and in the Senate by Northern Territory Senators.
In early 1986, the Christmas Island Assembly held a design competition for an island flag; the winning design was adopted as the informal flag of the territory for over a decade, and in 2002 it was made the official flag of Christmas Island.
[edit] Economy
Phosphate mining had been the only significant economic activity, but in December 1987 the Australian Government closed the mine. In 1991, the mine was reopened by a consortium which included many of the former mine workers as shareholders. With the support of the government, a $34 million casino opened in 1993, but was closed in 1998 and has not re-opened. The Australian Government in 2001 agreed to support the creation of a commercial spaceport on the island, however this has not yet been constructed, and appears that it will not proceed in the future. The Howard Government built a temporary immigration detention centre on the island in 2001 and planned to replace it with a larger, modern facility located at North West Point until Howard's defeat in the 2007 elections.
[edit] Geography
Christmas IslandLocated at 10°30′S 105°40′E / 10.5°S 105.667°E / -10.5; 105.667, the island is a quadrilateral with hollowed sides, about 19 kilometres (12 mi) in greatest length and 14.5 km (9.0 mi) in extreme breadth. The total land area is 135 square kilometres (52 sq mi), with 138.9 km (86.3 mi) of coastline. The island is the flat summit of a submarine mountain more than 4,500 metres (15,000 ft),[13] the depth of the platform from which it rises being about 4,200 m (14,000 ft) and its height above the sea being upwards of 300 m (980 ft).[14] The mountain was originally a volcano, and some basalt is exposed in places such as The Dales and Dolly Beach, but most of the surface rock is limestone accumulated from the growth of coral over millions of years.[15]
The climate is tropical, with heat and humidity moderated by trade winds. Steep cliffs along much of the coast rise abruptly to a central plateau. Elevation ranges from sea level to 361 m (1,180 ft) at Murray Hill. The island is mainly tropical rainforest, of which 63% is National Park.
The narrow fringing reef surrounding the island can be a maritime hazard.
Christmas Island is 500 km (310 mi) south of Indonesia and about 2,600 km (1,600 mi) northwest of Perth.
[edit] Flora and fauna

Coconut crab
Christmas Island red crab
Red-footed Boobies
Common Noddy
Brown BoobyChristmas Island is of immense scientific value as it was uninhabited until the late nineteenth century, so many unique species of fauna and flora exist which have evolved independently of human interference. Two species of native rats, the Maclear's and Bulldog Rat have gone extinct since the island was settled, the species of shrew has not been seen since the mid 1980s and may be already extinct, and the Christmas Island Pipistrelle, a small bat is critically endangered. Two-thirds of the island has been declared a National Park which is managed by the Australian Department of Environment and Heritage through Parks Australia.
The dense rainforest has evolved in the deep soils of the plateau and on the terraces. The forests are dominated by twenty-five tree species. Ferns, orchids and vines grow on the branches in the humid atmosphere beneath the canopy. The 135 plant species include sixteen which are found only on Christmas Island.
The annual red crab mass migration (around 100 million animals) to the sea to spawn has been called one of the wonders of the natural world[16] and takes place each year around November; after the start of the wet season and in synchronisation with the cycle of the moon.
The land crabs and sea birds are the most noticeable animals on the island. Twenty terrestrial and intertidal species of crab (of which thirteen are regarded as true land crabs, only dependent on the ocean for larval development) have been described. Robber crabs, known elsewhere as coconut crabs, also exist in large numbers on the island.
Christmas Island is a focal point for sea birds of various species. Eight species or subspecies of sea birds nest on the island. The most numerous is the Red-footed Booby that nests in colonies, in trees, on many parts of the shore terrace. The widespread Brown Booby nests on the ground near the edge of the seacliff and inland cliffs. Abbott's Booby (listed as endangered) nests on tall emergent trees of the western, northern and southern plateau rainforest. The Christmas Island forest is the only nesting habitat of the Abbott's Booby left in the world. The endemic Christmas Island Frigatebird (listed as endangered) has nesting areas on the north-eastern shore terraces and the more widespread. Great Frigatebirds nest in semi-decious trees on the shore terrace with the greatest concentrations being in the North West and South Point areas. The Common Noddy and two species of bosuns or tropicbirds, with their brilliant gold or silver plumage and distinctive streamer tail feathers, also nest on the island. Of the ten native land birds and shorebirds, seven are endemic species or subspecies. Some 86 migrant bird species have been recorded.
[edit] Communications and transportation
Telephone services are provided by Telstra and are a part of the Australian network with the same prefix as Western Australia (08). A GSM mobile telephone system replaced the old analogue network in February 2005. Four free-to-air television stations from Australia are broadcast (ABC, SBS, GWN and WIN) in the same time-zone as Perth. Radio broadcasts from Australia include ABC Radio National, ABC Regional radio and Red FM. All services are provided by satellite links from the mainland. Broadband internet became available to subscribers in urban areas in mid 2005 through the local internet service provider, CIIA (formerly dotCX).
Christmas Island, e to its close proximity to Australia's northern neighbours, falls within many of the more 'interesting' satellite footprints throughout the region. This results in ideal conditions for receiving various Asian broadcasts which locals sometimes prefer to the West Australian provided content. Additionally, ionospheric conditions usually bode well for many of the more terrestrial radio transmissions - HF right up through VHF and sometimes in to UHF. The island plays home to a small array of radio equipment that, evidently, spans a good chunk of the usable spectrum. A variety of government owned and operated antenna systems are employed on the island to take advantage of this.
A container port exists at Flying Fish Cove with an alternative container unloading point to the south of the island at Norris Point for use ring the December to March 'swell season" of seasonal rough seas.
An 18 km standard gauge railway from Flying Fish Cove to the phosphate mine was constructed in 1914. It was closed in December 1987 when the Australian Government closed the mine but remains largely intact.
There are three weekly flights into Christmas Island Airport from Perth, Western Australia (via RAAF Learmonth) and a weekly charter flight from Malaysia operated by Malaysia Airlines on Saturdays.
There is a new recreation centre at Phosphate Hill operated by the Shire of Christmas Island. There is also a taxi service. The road network covers most of the island and is generally good quality, although four wheel drive vehicles are needed to access some more distant parts of the rain forest or the more isolated beaches, which are only accessible by rough dirt roads.

㈦ 圣诞岛是哪个国家的
圣诞岛是澳大利亚的。
圣诞岛位于澳大利亚西北印度洋上,靠近爪哇岛,1958年前属新加坡领土,是全球除中国和新加坡外,少数以华人为主的地区之一。
圣诞岛属于澳大利亚海外领地,总人口中有63%的居民为华人,位于爪哇岛以南360公里,澳大利亚西北1400公里处(南纬10°30′,东经105°40′),面积135平方公里,人口1960人(2008年),官方语言为英语,华人间通行粤语。

圣诞岛属于澳大利亚海外领地,人口1960人。主要居民为华人。其中华人占63%,马来人占25%,欧洲裔占12%,官方语言为英语,华人间通行粤语。
澳大利亚的人口统计,圣诞岛有1439人,70%是华人,20%欧洲人,马来人占10%,除了英语是官方语言之外,粤语与马来语也是民间的语言。
2008年总人口中有63%为华人,25%为主要来自马来西亚、新加坡和科科斯群岛的劳工,此外还有澳大利亚政府的管理人员。传统上岛上居民大部分是圣诞岛磷酸盐矿开采有限公司的雇员,该公司为澳大利亚政府所有。
㈧ 当年澳大利亚是如何从新加坡取得圣诞岛的
在澳大利亚西北方向1400公里处,有一个叫做“圣诞岛”的岛屿。圣诞岛面积大约有135平方公里,常住人口近2000人。
圣诞岛是世界上除了中国和新加坡之外,极少数以华人为主的地区。圣诞岛最新的人口报告显示,该地区有近7成的人口是华人,澳大利亚的白人只占据了极少数。
从地理位置上来说,圣诞岛地处印度洋东部,显然是更为靠近东南亚国家的。而在历史上,圣诞岛自发现以后也一直归属新加坡所有,直到上世纪50年代,澳大利亚才第一次拥有了圣诞岛的主权。
(圣诞岛风光)
在这两点好处的诱惑下,澳大利亚在50年代开始便向英国提出请求,请英国将圣诞岛交给自己来管理。
终于在1957年,圣诞岛在英国人的运作下,被新加坡割让给了澳大利亚。而澳大利亚政府也象征性地向新加坡支付了数百万英镑,以作为买下圣诞岛的费用。当然了,这笔钱最后是被英国人据为己有,还是交到了新加坡手中,我们就不得而知了。
圣诞岛之所以能如此轻易地被交到澳大利亚手上,有两个原因。
其一,新加坡是在60年代加入马来西亚后,才正式从英国脱离出去的。而在交易圣诞岛的1957年,新加坡仍然是英国的一块殖民地。并且当时的新加坡政府是出了名的贪腐无能,圣诞岛被交易甚至在短短十分钟之内就被拍板。
其二,早在1955年,新加坡政府就将科科斯群岛以几乎同样的方式割让给了澳大利亚。因此在1957年,澳大利亚政府再次向英国提出圣诞岛交易时,新加坡便只是例行公事地选择割让岛屿。
