As the People’s Republic of China celebrated the 60th birthday, the success of the language was one of the mainly things to do be proud of. China is a country of many region (地區(qū)) and many dialects (方言). It was difficult for people to communicate with each other. Mandarin (Putonghua), the language commonly spoken around Beijing, was encouraged as national language. In 1982, the government promoted the use of Putonghua throughout the country. 83 It was obligatory (義不容辭的,必須履行的) to speak Putonghua in schools, in other institution, on radios, TVs and in films.

The policy (方針,政策) has been wonderfully successfully. And it’s not just successful in mainland China but in Chinese communities around the world. Hong Kong is a Cantonese (粵語) speaking city but students are learning Putonghua in the schools and more people are speaking it on the street. The same is true among Chinese communities in cities from Singapore to London. 

Most of this worldwide success has a lot to do with business. China’s economy is growing and people, even non- Chinese, are learning Putonghua so that they can do business with China. Of course, not everyone is learning the language for economic reasons. Many people are learning it for fun and to discover the richness of Chinese culture.

China celebrated its 60th birthday, so enjoy it: 84 Be proud of our country and be proud of our language.

Shengrikuaile, Zhongguo!
