Dear Hongye Many thanks for this. It is very interesting. You may remember I sent you an email via the network about a week ago tellling you that I had being doing some research on Chinese government sponsorship of Mandarin teaching and other aspects of Chinese culture overseas. It really would be helpful for me and I am sure for others too to know whether your organisation receives support from a Chinese government ministry or agency. I look forward to hearing from you with thanks Rhiannon On 1/30/06, COMAC <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > > Dear all, > > Thank you all for your emails of support, our project of promoting > Chinese language and culture has been in development for some time now. > We are currently focusing our attention on teaching Mandarin Chinese, > this of course is a challenge here in the UK but we are steadily gaining > more and more support in our mission. > > We hope that our project can come into fruition soon but this depends a > lot on educational policy and the vision of the schools and colleges.
