[quote=PINETREE                ,29012]I hope you will fulfil your goal of being fluent in spoken Mandarin, as well as written Chinese - so much so that you are as good as the local Chinese, Jab. And when u are barred from certain jobs or from participation in any projects that require Chinese, just because you are not native Chinese-speakers, u will face what the non-native English speakers are presently facing.The point is that all these "bullshit" boil down to prejudice, discrimination, bias & ignorance on the part of the policy-makers. It reflects their lack of exposure on what is going on outside their own circles."Native English speakers preferred" - what does "preferred" mean ? It is just giving the selector/policy-makers a way out of a situation where they could be seen as discrinatory - that's all. In the West it is criminal to be seen as discriminatory.Just look at the recent advertisement here to recruit English language teacher by a Recruitment Co from Beijing - they reflect the same attitude. Isn't it sad ?[/quote]
