Chiang Wei-kuo in Germany, 1936. Does he belong to so-called "jakunin"? heheh.

The Question: are the sons from the same mother?
the elder son on the left, besides visible dark pigmentation, presents a wide flat nose, without knowing I would place him directly in S East Asia
Chiang Wei kuo, the Younger son in German uniform, would fit better in China. without knowing better (and awaiting a Agrippa- Human 2 duel) I would say he looks pred North Sinid. If the Japanese 'Jakunin' type, derives at least from a 'Sinid' root, we can make a comparison
Kai-shek seems more inclined to a Sud-Sinid (kind of Jackie Chan like)

In fact, Chiang Wei-kuo is NOT Chiang Kai-shek's biological son. He is a son of Dai Ji-tao, one of Chiang Kai-shek's lifetime close comrades, from southwest China. Chiang adopted Wei-kuo when he was 2 years old----Mr. Dai got a very mean wife and Wei-kuo was born by Mr. Dai and his Japanese lover. Jing-kuo is Chiang Kai-shek's biological son and looks like his mother very much.

Sinid - thats for sure. Left looks Suedsinid with possible Palaemongolid rather, right is much more progressive and between Nord- and Mittelsinid, or you can just call him a quite classic Sinid type.
