I’m looking forward to seeing more bilingual people in the future.”Professor Kilula said.

Ms. Wang Ke expressed her gratitude for UDOM’s support and caring for Chinese teachers as well as its recognition of their hard work. The Confucius Institute is an important window for the world to know more about China, and a vital bridge for cultural communication between China and Tanzania. Teachers in Confucius Institute are pioneers and guardians of this window. They are envoys of culture who are responsible for teaching Chinese and spread Chinese culture. Ms. Wang Ke hoped that these teachers would overcome difficulties, stick to their posts, and make greater contributions to the communication and friendship between our two peoples.
