Chinese Invasion of South Africa IN FULL SWING WITH MANDARIN CLASSES!

Good luck South Africa with your business partnership with China. You will need it! And I love the STUPIDITY! Yeah, everyone else in the southern part of Africa is learning Mandarin, so we should do it too! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH! And here is where Zuma shows his stupidity. He's taking a MASSIVE GAMBLE that he and future generations of South Africans can OUTWIT THE CHINESE who had already set their sights on PLUNDERING AFRICA LIKE THE WHITES AND ARABS DO AND DID, AS FAR BACK AS EARLY 2000's.

Johannesburg (AFP) - South African state schools will introduce Mandarin lessons next year in a bid to bolster cultural relations with China, its largest trading partner, a government official said Wednesday.

Basic education spokesman Elijah Mhlanga told AFP that South Africa hopes to teach Mandarin to "as many people as far as practically possible".

Mhlanga said that the programme -- part of a 10-year plan signed by South African President Jacob Zuma in December last year -- was already under way.

"There are teachers who travel to China for training while China has and will bring trainers into the country to support us," said Mhlanga, adding that China was footing the bill for the training.

But the decision to introduce the language has outraged the South African Democratic Teachers' Union (SADTU), which said it was "tantamount to a new form of colonisation".

"SADTU rejects this imposition with the contempt it deserves," said the union's general secretary Mugwena Maluleke.

"We will prioritise African languages in order to build social cohesion."

The roll-out of Mandarin will see China training hundreds of South African teachers and building three Confucius Institutes, (Annnnnnnnnnnd, this is how it starts! We will build CULTURE CENTERS where you live at and we will use Whites as an example, even though we know that Whites are in a more stable position on all fronts than us, WHAT COULD GO WRONG!? DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!) research centres similar to Germany's Goethe-Institut designed to promote Chinese culture.

In 2009, China became South Africa's largest trading partner.

But the trade balance has been skewed in favour of China, with Africa's most developed economy exporting raw materials and importing manufactured goods, causing concern that the trade between the two countries is not a mutually beneficial relationship.

A research fellow at the Centre for Chinese Studies at Stellenbosch University believes the decision was long overdue.

"With the ubiquity of China in all spheres of African society, it would be absurd if our government didn't arm our people with Mandarin," said Paul Tembe.

"When I was in China in 2004, Chinese schools were already teaching Swahili and Zulu."

South Africa has 11 official languages -- a hallmark of Nelson Mandela's rainbow nation -- but English dominates business.

Mandarin is already taught in other southern African countries.
