Foreign language… Chinese!

Chinese calligraphy

I read this piece of news in avui.cat and I thought it could be interesting. It seems that Panama is going to change the foreign language they teach at schools. The new language is Chinese and the reason is the strong economic relationship between the two countries. Authorities say that in 10 years Panama must have found the necessary infrastructure for the teaching of Chinese, which basically means training new teachers.
