Number of British students who have received Chinese government Scholarship and is going to study in China has doubled or tripled this year, a Chinese diplomat in London said Monday. Some 57 students received the scholarship this year after the system was expanded. Number used to be between 10 and 20, or even less. "This is the biggest number we've seen," said Minister Tian Xiaogang, who is in charge of the education part of the Chinese Embassy in London. Number w
ould continue to increase, Tian said, adding "we will register with the British universities for several long-term cooperation." China and Britain enjoyed a lot of high-level split in education, he added. Frazer Macdonald, senior policy adviser in the Joint International Unit of the Department of Employment, innovation and skills that are managed by higher education in the UK, agreed with Tian at this point. "We're working on all levels of education," he said and expressed the hope that the growing Chinese Government Scholarship Program would help "strengthen and cement relations between the UK education and China." There is great demand in the UK for the chance to China, to him. They describe students as "civil ambassador" between China and Britain. The center-off party given the Chinese embassy in London on Monday, Lisa Íris, graduating and who is going to the East China Normal University in Shanghai, said she was lucky to win scholarships and was glad to accept it. "I want really to go to China. I heard it's incredible," she said. Demetrius, now Intern for Conservative Party, said: "I will have a better understanding of China by this (program), which is important for the interaction time with China if I can get a high place in politics."
