Ukrainian linguist keen to translate Chinese books

Iryna Yaremchuk is in Beijing on a visiting program for young Sinologists that has been organized by the Culture Ministry and the think tank Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

"It's a very good chance to meet Sinologists from different countries. We know our problems and learn from each other during such exchanges," says the 36-year-old Ukrainian linguist.

The program, which began on July 3 and ends on Friday, aims to assist foreign Sinologists with their research work as well as let them experience Chinese culture.
