Survey of Chinese Language Education in Northern Thailand

泰北,因为“金三角”的存在和近40万华人居住于此而吸引了各国学者的目光。随着“一带一路”构想的落地和中国影响力的提升,泰北华文教育开始受到有关各方的深切关注。目前泰北华文教育需求旺盛,但“供给”问题却困难重重。本文基于实地考察,从历史背景、教育环境、华文教材三方面,讨论泰北华文教育的特殊性,认为泰北华文教育还只是起步阶段,还有很多难题需要我们国家政府和汉教人士,与泰北各界华人一起努力攻克。

Northern Thailand attracted the attention of scholars from all over the world because of the existence of the “Golden Triangle” and the presence of nearly 400,000 Chinese.With the landing of the “One Belt,One Road” concept and the improvement of China’s influence,the Chinese language education in Northern Thailand has begun to receive deep concern from all parties related.At present,there is a strong demand for Chinese language education in Northern Thailand,but the problem of “supply” is difficult.Based on field investigation,this article discusses the particularity of Chinese language education there from three aspects:historical background, educational environment and Chinese language textbooks.It is believed that the Chinese language education there is still in its infancy. There are still many problems that need government and educators to deal with.
