Ni Hao Ma!

July 1, 2008 | Posted by katchucrap << back to blog

We Great Lakers dont really wish in  Chinese, or IM in Chinese, but we would get a fair hang of a Chinese movie than most others 🙂  and NDTV acknowledges the fact that Great Lakes is the only B school thats realised the importance of Chinese in adding a dimension to understand the culture of China, which offers immense business oppurtunities.

Check this Link on how Indian B-Schoolers can benefit from learning Chinese- http://www.ndtvprofit.com/2008/07/01102255/Indian-MBAs-can-benefit-from-l.html

PS: Ni Hao Ma means, How are you in Chinese, the words that my Tam Brahm Chinese instructor drilled every day while at Great Lakes
