　　    To develop friendships with other countries and popularize the Chinese language and culture, we have, in recent years, set up Confucius Institutes all over the world. This name is a proud one for Chinese people because Confucius was famous thinker, educator and philosopher in Chinese history. Right now there are already 156 institutes completed and by the end of this year that number will reach 200. The institutes’ services include teaching Chinese online, training Chinese teachers, providing Chinese textbooks, and introducing modern China’s tourism, business, and medicine to the world.
