Houston: A Mandarin Twist
In Texas, "Train the Trainer" sessions for Chinese Money Smart are being conducted entirely in Mandarin, as opposed to Cantonese. Since the two dialects use the same ideographs, Chinese Money Smart can be used by both Mandarin and Cantonese speakers.
A Houston news conference announcing the Mandarin-language initiative took place on March 28 and was co-hosted by Texas First National Bank (TFNB), which is well-known throughout Houston's large Chinese community, and the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) Team Houston. AAPI Team Houston is made up of local, state, and federal agencies that promote services to Asian communities in the Houston area.
