Jordan Opens Chinese Language-learning Confucius Institute



China and Jordan on Wednesday opened a Confucius Institute in the
kingdom to teach Chinese language to promote bilateral relations.

The inauguration came following a Memeradum of Understanding (MOU)
signed last September between the Confucius Institute Headquarters of
China and an Arab professional service firm Talal Abu-Ghazaleh
Organization (TAG-Org).
