"I want to learn about China's history and culture by studying Chinese. In the future, I hope to have the opportunity to teach English in China or study abroad in China, and after completing my studies, I will come back to teach Chinese to South Africans," said Busswell, a sophomore student

Buswell's classmate Luo Li said, "Chinese contains excellent traditional Chinese culture and the wisdom of the Chinese people in handling things. In the future, I want to go to China to work and live, and personally experience the charm of Chinese culture."

Lin Sen said, "Learning Chinese has changed my life. I hope to use the knowledge I have learned to help more young people in South Africa make more positive changes. We must strive to be ambassadors for the inheritance and development of the South China friendship cause, and promote deeper cultural exchanges between South China and Africa."

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
