On CI day, nearly 1,200 Confucius Institutes and Confucius classrooms in 123 countries and regions around the world hold a total of more than 3,000 Chinese language and cultural experience activities, according to Zhuo.

This is in addition to Chinese language teaching open classes, Chinese textbooks exhibitions, Chinese culture lectures, and Chinese cultural performances.

"With the enormous support of the Chinese government and the local governments, after 14 years of development, CI, which aims at promoting Chinese language and spreading Chinese culture has gained a prosperous momentum," Zhuo said.

To date, China has established 511 Confucius institutes and 1,073 Confucius classrooms across 140 countries and regions. The registered students exceed 2.1 million and the Chinese local teachers are more than 46,000.
