  • 2010 February 18, Alan Chin, “Essay: A Home 8,000 Miles Away”, in The New York Times[4], →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 04 December 2022, Lens‎[5]:
    Instead of the conventional transliteration system of Pinyin, which The Times ordinarily uses, Mr. Chin has employed Jyutping Cantonese in his post. Readers accustomed to seeing the name “Taishan” will find it rendered Toishan (台山) here, in part to avoid confusion with the famous mountain of Taishan (泰山) and also because Mr. Chin said it is closer to the local pronunciation. In this post, Gongmei is used for 江美, rather than “Jiangmei”; Hoiping for 開平, rather thanKaiping”; and Cekham for 赤坎, rather than “Chikan.” Slides 2, 3 and 8 were originally captioned Hoiping, but are now more precisely captioned Cekham. (The town of Cekham is part of the district of Hoiping, Mr. Chin explained.)
