About

Understanding Chinese culture and language will help you establish a career in foreign diplomacy, business or finance.

The relationship between China and New Zealand grows stronger every year. China is a core global player at the hub of the Asia-Pacific region, and a leader in overseas relations. New Zealand is home to many ethnic Chinese.

Relevant in Australasian contexts
