Learning Chinese will cause unemployment?

Chinese language is a field of study that studies and uses Chinese in many different fields such as diplomacy, tourism, trade, and economics. So in the current context, should students choose to study this field?

Should I choose to learn Chinese at the present time?

The Chinese economy is undergoing strong changes and is increasingly opening up to investment in the Vietnamese market. This opens up many job opportunities for students who write in Chinese, with attractive salaries.

The US has already started to incorporate Chinese into its curriculum and many European countries are considering doing the same. Not to mention, learning Chinese will be an advantage when you have the opportunity to travel or work in Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan - places where Chinese is commonly used.

Learning Chinese will be a prerequisite for learning other languages ​​more easily, because most countries that use hieroglyphic alphabets have characteristics derived from Chinese characters, especially Korean and Japanese.

From that, we can see that choosing to learn Chinese at the present time brings a lot of opportunities. However, the number of people choosing to learn this language is increasing, you need to be really determined or you will be eliminated and replaced at any time.
