"Our ultimate goal is to see more and more governments include Mandarin learning in their national education programs."

Kent Deng, associate director of the Confucius Institute for Business London, said that the biggest difficulty the Confucius Institutes are facing is that in Western countries, colleges only recognize courses given by their own faculty.

"The students spend money and time to study in Confucius Institutes, and if they can get credits for the lessons at the same time, they will have a higher incentive to learn," he added.
