Can the youth today think for tomorrow ?

How intelligent are the youth of today. Of course, this does not apply to the countries in the West that they do not have to learn a second or foreign language. I merely able to say it from the context from my country, Malaysia, to an extend would be ASEAN countries or perhaps Asia, which we have similar cultures.

If the youth in my country are intelligent enough, they would start to learn Esperanto,which is one of the 100 top languages in the world, according to BBC report, to top up their resume when they graduate from the university studies.

Esperanto is not only a language to be put in the resume, for the Science students, there is, at the moment which I know of, an Esperanto Science Review which publishes few issues a year. The Teleskopo is a good chance to get the information which are not in the English magazine and at the same time, they can publish their researches in the Teleskopo.

After completing the undergraduate courses, they might like to seek for another experience in the Europe, they can continue to study in the Esperanto University, AIS.

For those who are less fortunate that they can not afford the high cost of European cost of living, they can also consider to take the external courses.

As for the business and administration students, Esperanto would provide them a chance in the Esperanto Commercial League activities, which perhaps, can score contracts during the IKEF meet. The China Esperanto Commercial League is going into 5th year in 2011 and soon they will be into a major event in China as more and more Chinese merchants realise the advantages of the Esperanto commerce.

Therefore, it is upon you, the youth of today to think for the challenging days which might lay ahead of two decades from now. Learning a language is not in a day or a month. It takes time.

If you know the decline of French language, thus, you might like to agree with Dr Ostler's new work.
