When the children living abroad in Beijing have big dreams

 

[Mage]

Many Bangladeshi students are going to China for studying nowadays. The language barrier has a huge impact. Much more would have gone otherwise. Well, good luck to the students. Hope they can contribute to their field of study upon returning to their own country.

The Chinese Ambassador said the second area of focus for cooperation in the next phase of CPEC was social sector and the areas identified were education, health, agriculture, poverty reduction and human resources.

“We have to have a holistic and futuristic approach,” he said and added that in future the cooperation between Pakistan and China would encompass all areas including military, economic, development etc.

Ambassador Yao lauded the efforts of NUST in various disciplines of education including the science and technology and said the Chinese government and Embassy would continue to support the institution, considered as one of Pakistan’s leading educational institutions.

Japan is not enough. Should reach Korean levels.

Korean and Japanese students are very hard-working and produce quality research.

Their contribution is potentially higher. Besides, there is cultural affinity and proximity, which makes life easier for both the students and the international office/host country people.

Similar with Mongloian students, who I have seen to have easily blended and get along with the larger society. Also, much more respectful.

Indian and Pakistani students, when they are in the same classroom, they also get along very well . I have even seen them covering the back of each other -- for instance, when one has to skip a class.

Number of Japanese students used to top all foreign students in China, decreased dramatically due to the deterioration of the reationship in the last decade, Some foreign students in Beijing told me that they feel sorry for their Japanese classmates where they have to face a lot of hostility in their daily life in China.

I guess there has been no open hostility toward individuals, even during the height of dispute after nationalization of Diaoyu Islands.

I have a Japanese classmate here in Taiwan whose aunt is married and resides in Shanghai. My classmates says he traveled across the Mainland in 2015 and he felt no hostility. He even did not felt like a foreigner (as he can speak, read and write fluent Mandarin).

But, there must be psychological effect that has deterred students from coming over to Mainland for study. That should have been overcome by now.

Currently, CJK just hold their 13th round of negotiations yesterday. And, there was suggestions to start CJK+ process.

Just like ASEAN+.

For Indonesian students to go to China to study language barrier is one of the biggest challenge for them, so much even they lamented for not much class in English studies offered there. Twice or thrice the number goes to Australia because of this issue

I notice the number of Vietnamese students in China is in a freefall, reaching now a record low.

Indonesia and Australia share a similar writing script.
For Chinese you have to learn a totally new script (and has little to do with pronunciation) and learn to recognize different tones. Not easy for adult beginners.

So is life. One must bite the dust. I wish you all the best.
