摘　　要：本文扼要分析了19世纪初至20世纪初英属殖民地新加坡华人的职业结构。大体而言,华人的职业主要为商、工(工匠和劳工)两大类。新加坡华人的职业和方言群之间存在着一些密切关系:从事商业活动的多为福建人(闽南人);潮州人主要从事甘蜜和胡椒种植业;广府人和客家人以工匠居多;海南人则是雇员。造成这种现象的出现,有其必然原因。This paper discusses the occupational structure of Singaporean Chinese from the early 19th century to early 20th century. Chinese occupations mainly consisted of two kinds ： the shang （ merchants } and the kung （ workers, also arti- sans）. Roughly speaking, who had engaged in commercial activities were mostly Hokkiens; who had engaged in gambier and pepper planting were Teochews; Cantonese and Hakkas engaged more in artisans than other dialect groups; while Hain- anese engaged in services. These close relations had their certain reasons.
