I want to know the answer to the following question:
Why was this classification made?
All the background I'm provided with is that "In 2008, the High Court in South Africa ruled that Chinese South Africans who were residents during the apartheid era (and their descendants) are to be reclassified as "Black people," solely for the purposes of accessing affirmative action benefits, because they were also "disadvantaged" by racial discrimination.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
