China will continue to support international Chinese language education to ensure its global development, Vice-Premier Ding Xuexiang said during the World Chinese Language Conference in Beijing on Saturday.
The country should strengthen two-way communication between Chinese and other languages, and support young people from other countries to visit China and experience Chinese culture, Ding said at the conference’s plenary session.
The three-day conference, which began on Thursday, had the theme “Chinese for the World, Openness into the Future”. It attracted some 2,000 guests from China and abroad, including government officials and experts on Chinese language education.
