    Always better to know a language then not to learn it. Better to get jobs and opens toward new world of opportunity as well as communicating with each other.

    there are many valid and logical reasons to list.. but i think first and foremost.. is because you, youself are chinese.. no better reason..

    It is best to understand(read and write) chinese because i have been told that china is becoming a very large and powerful country and that in a few years time, there will be alot of businesses wanting to employ employees who understand chinese so that they can do deals with the country etc.

    we've already taken over the world (well, Asians in general anyway). Others just don't know it or don't want to admit it yet.

    it's good to learn chinese for karaoke and you can read the newspapers tabloids and that's pretty good....seriously, it connects you with your cultural heritage.

    You may choose to ask yourself y not learn Chinese. True, it may take a little time, but a lot of Chinese dramas are very originial and excellent. You can watch Chinese movies with or without sub. Also there are a lot of jobs that require the person to speak Chinese.

    The_Jelly NSFW? :P

    I can speak it but I can't read it. Anyways, wouldn't you feel kind of bad when you go to a restaurant in HK and you couldn't read the menu?

    i'm a malaysia-born-chinese. Malaysia is a well known multi-racial country which consists of chinese, malay, indian, etc... . We have chinese schools here but unfortunately i was being sent to a malay/english school since primary till secondary. But anyhow, at home we speak mandarin and my parents taught me how to write and read chinese. For those who are chinese, if you do not know how to write in chinese, at least u must know how to write your own name.
