    Learning chinese is another thing to "Add" to your resume. If you know another language, you can find more business in the long-run.

    if your chinese, you need to know it b/c you could talk to your family members whoever that speaks in it.
    and you could also speak to your chinese friends or if your going to China, HK, Taiwan, you WILL need it.

    look at it this way with China's economy being so good having mandarin on your resume could give you that extra qualification to get the job

    china = highest GDP in teh world... GDP is means they're developing the entire country by a shit-ton.. which means they need ppl over there to help them develop... so that translates to the most job opportunities needed. china's very open to foreigners now too, especially ones that bring in american education.

    Beyond working in china, american companies all want to do business in china now.. so if you're going into business.. like sales.. u damn well better know chinese.

    I greatly regret not even attending Chinese school when I was little mainly because my parents never thought about it.... -shock So I have learned most my Cantonese from everyday conversions with my family but I still lack reading/writing skills. I am planning to start learning how to read/write Chinese but as of now I need to focus on getting good marks to get into university and hopefully apply for scholarships.

    man its great to learn chinese! If you enjoy chinese movies or music, it is nice to understand them.

    I personally want to learn more chinese if I can. Being a chinese person myself, I would feel ashamed if I did not at least learn how to speak and carry on a casual conversation.

    Learn to write Chinese is one and only one important thing

    because Chinese writing make you aware if there is lost or down

    then there is also a chance is waiting.

    The two words phase We-Gi is one example.

    Lots of advantages, being able to enjoy cultural stuff (movies, tv shows, books) and more work opportunities. It'll help with travelling too!
