What is the mission of general school? Isn’t it to teach children the knowledge and skills they need to be able to develop their career and future? Language skills are essentially crucial to their career development. Can I ask how good is your Mandarin? Do you have Cantonese accent? Have you ever encountered difficulty in finding a job because of your language deficiency?

你話香港母語教學
用廣東話 定係用普通話？
文字又秦始皇統一
語言由共產黨統一

Cantonese is a dialect and the main mission for general school is not to protect a local dialect. To protect it should be the mission of other specialized organizations. General school is to give children the skills to survive and excel in the cruel society they will face in the future.

    why can you think things in opposite way?
When you want to survive in a society that speaks Cantonese, even your mandarine is good you have to learn Cantonese in order to survive.

Same to us that we try to speak good Mandarine here in order to entertain our Mainland brothers.

You actually got the critical point – if Cantonese is vital for children to the survival and success in society, Cantonese will be an important skill that school should teach and will teach.

Young people in Taiwan are losing their 閩南話, will you say the Taiwanese government purposely tries to eliminate 閩南話?

A few of my friends who are CBC can actually speak fluent Cantonese. Couple of them are fluent in both Cantonese and Mandarin and they can also read and write in Chinese. How can they achieve that? It is because they and their parents believe those language skills are important for their future success.

Why don't you complain Taiwan only teach in mandarin and Canada only teach in English or French in general public school?

你都識講啦
你要去第二道搵食 就要適應嗰道嘅形勢
唔通你叫個廣東人 同啲米講普通話
話啲米會快啲長？
要用 就自然去學㗎啦

   點解你唔問吓啲中國人響呢度
要啲仔女學英語 同法語重好喇
響西方社會 就要用英語
原住民要響大城市搵食 一樣要英語
咁顯淺嘅邏輯道理 你都唔明
番屋企問吓你雙親
你細個時 讀乜？

what is the main 搵食 language in China or the great China region (mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan)? Isn't it mandarin?

Just mention Hong Kong, don't you discover mandarin is becoming more and more important in job environment?

Just state your points clearly to counter if you believe you have points.

Of course China wants to be connected with the world and that is why the school focus on teaching mandarin and English but not local dialects.
