Quick summary from various censuses and studies (like Pew, national stats, and academic stuff from recent years):
Southeast Asia:
Malaysia: Around 4-5% of Chinese women marry non-Chinese (usually Malay or Indian guys). Overall interracial marriages are about 11%, but Chinese folks mostly marry within their group ~95%.
Indonesia: Less than 10% for Chinese women with indigenous Indonesians (e.g., Javanese). They prefer same-ethnic marriages over 89% of the time, even though early immigrants mixed more.
Vietnam: Under 10% with local Vietnamese men. Often more ties to cross-border Chinese due to economics. In general for SEA: Rates are 5-10%, with things like religion (Islam vs. others) and traditions playing a role. They've been there for generations, speak the languages, run local businesses, and identify as "Malaysian/Indonesian/Vietnamese"... but the marriage numbers don't reflect super high mixing.
Western Countries:
UK: 20-30% interracial for Chinese women, with about 30% to white British men. "Other Asian" groups (including Chinese) hit up to 38%.
Australia: 20-30% overall, up to 35% with white Aussies. Especially higher for those born there.
USA: 40-50% interracial, with white men at 37-41%. US-born Chinese women are at 54%.
Canada: 17-19% total, but 54% for Canada-born, mostly white partners.
They don't want to marry 5'4 SEAcels but are desperate to marry 6'0+ aryan chads, I wonder why
