Today Is Chinese Language Day at the UN!:)

Desi just discovered it while watching CCTV past ten minutes, and the United Nations, Geneva celebarted the day with dance and music performances and a special calligraphy exhibtion by Prof Zhao Bin. Visuals show that more and more Westerners are learning Mandarin though, according to the featured language teaher, the Chinse language is difficult to learn. But with China now as the world's second largest economy in the world after the US, and China just having beaten Japan less than a year ago into third place, this growing trend of earning Chinese will grow. A happy reciprocation in kind as more and more mainland Chinese alsp take to mastering the English language, growing increasingly importance at the international workplace and the world of politics and diplomacy.

Desi is still trying to be a Malaysian S'akespeare', drinking lots of Japanese wine and apeing Elvis rockNroll! And even reviving the ancient art of war using arrows and spears. But no more yelling "Paleface is king, Injuns are bad"! as he ran around semi-naked in Mambau -- just 7 miles out of Furong on the olde road to Port Dickson if you wanna no!:(
