JEDDAH: Saudi Arabia and China on Friday agreed to include the Chinese language as a curriculum at all stages of education in schools and universities across the Kingdom.

The agreement came during a meeting between Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and a high-level Chinese delegation in the capital Beijing, in a bid to strengthen bilateral friendship and cooperation and deepen the strategic partnership at all levels between both countries.

The move aims to enable a comprehensive strategic partnership to achieve the aspirations of the Saudi and Chinese leaderships and seize the promising opportunities between their two peoples, a relationship which has extended for decades.

The inclusion of the Chinese language will enhance the cultural diversity of students in the Kingdom and contribute to the achievement of the future national goals in the field of education for the Vision 2030.

The introduction of Chinese into the curriculum is an important step toward opening new academic horizons for students of various educational levels in the Kingdom.

Learning Chinese will serve as a bridge between the two peoples and would contribute to increasing trade and cultural ties.

You do have a point. Plus we all like to abuse USA and NATO due to what they did with Iraq, Syria and Palestine......BUT no White man was roaming in streets of Baghdad 200 years back. As Hassan Nisar says, aapke poori tareekh aik dosre ki gardanein katne per mushtamil hay.

Correct me if I am wrong but 2003 was not the only time when Baghdad was invaded , history from 1000 till 1800 had had other incidents. So some homework is indeed required apart from cursing West
