Abroad - China |
Exotic & Breathtaking, The
Land of the Dragon awaits intrepid explorers with a
wonderfully warm welcome...
China
is a fantastic Country in which to take time out for
personal development and study. China is also a very
old Country, steeped in tradition, ancient culture and
oriental mystery |
 |
| Current
archaeology has unearthed Chinese settlements dating
back over 20,000 years. Chinese writing existed 11,000
years ago, but has only become available to common
people within the last 100 years |
|
| Education
in China has always been highly revered, as have scholastic
and artistic pursuits. Chinese people have been responsible
for many First's in World History - Gunpowder, spinning
Silk, Ceramics and special glazes, Opera, and Personal
Deportment |
|
| Modern
China is a very advanced, with new cities being built
and cars everywhere. Rural China is still largely peasant
village based, but even this is changing. This makes
China unique, the mix of old and new, traditional and
modern |
|
| Looking
forwards; China overtook UK as the World's 4th largest
economy in early 2007, and will supercede Germany later
in the year. Japan will be the economys' next victim
Circa 2009 - leaving only a direct challenge to the
USA. China also has a space program, has successfully
send several Astronauts into orbit, and plans a manned
mission to Mars Circa 2030 |

| After
millennia of peaceful slumber, the Chinese Dragon is
waking - Ignore this at your peril! Excel will
help you speak their language, and understand Chinese
thinking - for it is only through understanding others,
and acceptance of our different qualities and quirks,
that a true Brotherhood of mankind can journey forwards...

what you really need to know is that Chinese students
will work a 16 hour day =7/11. Western students will
know time-management techniques, and preserve chill
time - Chinese beer 15p/pint, cigarettes @ 20p pack,
and meal for 4 at less than £2. Disco's, clubs
