Confucius Institute

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:13): How does being a brand ambassador for the Confucius Institute go down when you represent the Marshall government at events as the Assistant Minister to the Premier on multicultural affairs when the events are run by the Tibetans, Taiwanese, Uyghurs or Falun Gong?

The Hon. J.S. LEE (15:13): As I previously stated in all my other answers, I am the brand ambassador because the Confucius Institute teaches Chinese language. I am the only person in this parliament who does speak a Chinese language. If the honourable member has anything against that—and call it what it is—I feel that I have satisfied the chamber in answering all the other questions previously.
