Learning Chinese popular among students in Ghana

ACCRA - Benjamin Gyimah, 21, is a high school graduate working at the GS Plaza Hotel, a leading Chinese hospitality facility in Ghana's capital.

He grew up loving Chinese movies and arts but could not understand the films without subtitles.

Now, his dream of learning Chinese is on the way to being fulfilled after he enrolled at the Confucius Institute earlier this year after his elder brother, who studied Chinese at the University of Ghana, encouraged him to do so.
