Join hands to popularize simplified Chinese
There has been heated discussion on the Internet on which form of Chinese characters we should use, traditional or simplified.
Some argue that traditional Chinese characters embody the culture. Furthermore, traditional characters help us better understand the classics. Others maintain that simplified characters are easier to learn, read and write and can help spread literacy. They say it is a historic trend that simplified characters replace traditional ones.
