Why Chinese?
Chinese Mandarin is a language used in communication by over one billion people worldwide. It is widely spoken throughout East Asia and is the official language in China, Taiwan and Singapore. It is also one of the six official languages of the United Nations. In Australia, Mandarin is the most spoken language after English.
Recent global trends have made Mandarin a useful communication tool, especially in the areas of business and international relations. There is also increased emigration of Chinese people to countries such as Australia, which brings new ideas and opportunities.
The history of the Chinese people is long and fascinating. Aspects of the culture such as food and philosophy have also been integrated into everyday lifestyle. It is often said that obtaining a language is much like possessing a key for a locked door. Chinese Mandarin grants access to a culture of diversity and heritage. It is a language well worth knowing.
