South Africa's language is English

More foreigners are coming to China thanks to the global economic recession. This has caused the entire TESOL (Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages) job market to go into a tailspin. Tens of thousands of foreigners have been living in China, and most of them have made it good in life.
