Chinese culture on show in Africa

Globalization of Chinese culture becomes hot topic

Children learn traditional Chinese culture in Changsha

Xinhua: Where do you learn about Chinese culture? Can you name some of the problems when China promotes its culture to other countries?

Twenty-eight-year-old Nairobi resident Belly said he got to know Chinese culture through Chinese people working there. "Unfortunately, most Chinese people prefer talking about business. It's a pity that they do not discuss much about their culture with us," he said.

He suggested that overseas Chinese be "more socially open" and the Chinese government hold more expos in Africa. "Maybe China should organize a fashion exhibition because I am really curious how the Chinese women are dressed," he added.

Kim Inki, CEO of MaxTimes Korea, a South Korean company, suggested that China introduce more movies and TV programs to other countries so as to further improve its cultural influence globally.

Chinese movie makers and TV program producers still have a lot of work to do to make Chinese entertainment more attractive, said Kim.
