CGTN published this video item, entitled “The Point: Are media exaggerating fears over new Mandarin classes in Inner Mongolia?” – below is their description.
In this week’s Headline Buster, how are various media covering China’s new education policies for teaching classes in both Mandarin and Mongolian in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region? Judging from many articles, it sounds as if Mandarin is totally replacing Mongolian as the language of instruction, as part of a sinister plot to eradicate Mongolian culture from the region. But that’s just not the case. We’ll look at what the new policy says and means, and how Mongolian language and culture are protected under Chinese law.
