The
opening of the first Confucius Institute was in Seoul in 2004.
China
uses culture as a diplomatic platform to enhance its image and
project its soft power.
China's
influence is growing steadily, the thrust for the future is not
only to export more goods, but also showcase the life and culture of
the nation.
China
wants to forge greater trust with the world, especially through more
cultural exchanges, as it helps build the global image of a peaceful
rising power.
Confucius
Institutes have emerged as China's most successful global brand for
promoting Chinese language and culture
By
the end of last year, there were about 358 Confucius Institutes and
500 Confucius classrooms in five continents, covering 105 countries
and regions, with registered students more than 50 million.
Students
taking classes at the Confucius Institutes feel that learning
Chinese also increases their future employment opportunities
Confucius
Institutes have helped train people in Chinese, which experts
believe is also conducive to the expansion of other Chinese culture,
particularly literature
