- Agree in principle but merge to Category:East Timorese diaspora and Category:Portuguese emigrants to Macau. Marcocapelle ( talk) 21:31, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
- Delete without merging. Article
Pedro José Lobo was already a Portuguese national of Macanese background (in the ethnic sense of the mixed Chinese-Portuguese population that represents a small fraction of Macau's population). He was born in then-Portuguese Timor and lived most of his life in Macau. I don't believe that emigrant or diaspora apply in this case.

Marcocapelle: I think I would regard a move in that situation as an emigration mostly if the person is defined as a national of the departure country/colony before the move, and of the arrival country/colony after it. If they are better defined from the beginning as a national of either the colonizing country or the place of arrival, then I find emigrant not applicable.
Pedro José Lobo is in the latter case, as he is clearly presented as first and foremost a Portuguese, of Macanese ethnicity, with roots in Macau, and no link specified to Timor besides the POB. A comparable situation is the case of children of US military people born on a US base in Germany during their parents' sometimes short tour there (there's a number of them). They're just American, not immigrants from West Germany.
