Several Thoughts on Current Chinese Education in the Philippines

Abstract

There is an extremely long contact history between China and the Philippines. Although Philippine people are more and more interested in learning Chinese and the quality of Chinese education in the Philippines remains to be improved, the friction between Chinese and Philippine government, "Philippine" education system of Philippine government, and complicated multi-language environment are all reasons which results in not optimistic status of Chinese education. Those problems have seriously hindered the further development of Chinese education in the Philippines. Based on above problems, this paper proposes corresponding countermeasures for the purpose of promoting Chinese education to realize reasonable, rich, and occupational development.
