Mark Zuckerberg stuns Beijing crowd by speaking Mandarin - video

His wife is Chinese-American. She may have been his motivation to learn her native tongue.

As an TESOL teacher in Taiwan, I have regrets about many of my ex-pat colleagues, not unlike Mark Zuckerberg in motivation to learn Mandarin.Native workers in all countries capitalism touches have been exploited by outsourced sweatshops. North American and European ex-pats escape exploitation in non-English speaking countries. They are the agents of exploitation, unless they're teachers, like me.I'm embarrassed I speak English sometimes but wouldn't have an honest job here otherwise.
