People in Europe knows many languages, german, french, italian,
spanish, english. and now many in europe and the us are learning
chinese.
Many people in Taiwan knows chinese and japanese. The Malaysian
chinese know chinese, malay and english. many Indonesian can speak
indo and english, and chinese for the ethnic chinese.
Here we learn both languages in schools, you can find easily the
people to converse in english and chinese, switch on the tv you can
listen to both english and chinese programs. so we have the
environment and we should make the best use of these to command
both languages, if possible, learn a third language.
find the interest in the use of languages. My mom learn chinese
by watching korea drama.
If our young people don't learn, we would soon lose out to the
PRC who speak english and the angmoh who speak chinese. Trust me,
there are many.
