Due to a lack of channels of mutual communication, people in other countries often have limited views of the realities of China and the Chinese people.

The China Youth Daily carries an article saying that the upcoming Olympics is a chance to show China to the whole world.

A German woman working at the Berlin International Airport said that all of her knowledge about China came from a friend in the German Embassy in China.

A survey of overseas Chinese students also shows that foreigners say that they just don't have many means of learning about China, and they think that Western media coverage is often limited.

Thousands of foreign tourists will come to China to watch the Olympic Games, where they will undoubtedly form their own impressions of the country. Meanwhile, it's also time for Chinese to learn about people from other countries to strengthen mutual understanding.
