How Learning Chinese Can Give You a Competitive Advantage

How is it valuable to learn Chinese? The answer may surprise you: Chinese is the world's biggest language. That's right, larger than English when using statistics regarding how many speakers use it as a native language! Answer number two: in the ever rotating globe, many economists today are predicting the lessening economic place of the United States of America in the world economy, and the rising economic place of China. That is only one tiny reason why Chinese is the most valuable language for workers in the global marketplace. Job offers in consulting, legal institutions, medical, chemistry, and many other industries even within Western societies are starting to demand skill in Standard Chinese as a compliment to English ability. To stay the best in the modern workforce, it is important to learn a second language other than English, and many would say there is no language more important than Chinese.

With that said, scores of people who live outside of China are reluctant to vacation to Communist China, abuses of human rights, attitudes against foreigners, foreigners arrested as spies for common tourist actions, in addition to other excuses. Perhaps rightly so. That said, what is the most practical solution for this problem? At which country can you find a Chinese speaking culture and people, accepting of foreign citizens, with high living standards, and democratic rule of law where you can study Mandarin easily? The right answer is to visit Taiwan, which is called the Republic of China (R.O.C.). The "republic" on the mainland is known as the People's Republic of China.

Inside of the R.O.C. island of Taiwan, there is a Western friendly government, a lively environment, a people friendly to Westerners, and among the lowest crime rates in the world, with rates far lower than mainland China. The citizens of Taiwan are hard working and the business market is rapidly expanding. The modern situation has created a tremendous need for Western graudates such as lawyers, managers, and other skilled employees to arrive on the scene to help in the consistent growth of their economy. Taking programs in Mandarin Chinese should help workers give potential applicants a huge leg up on their monolingual applicants. Also, a high percent of Mandarin-speaking employers, or those with Mandarin speaking customers are scouting for Chinese learners who have lived at a Chinese-speaking country like the island called "Taiwan", especially with workers who are often required to enlist in corporate trips overseas.
