Today the body responsible for accrediting translators and interpreters in Australia – the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI) – has been forced to suspend its Chinese testing program due to its tests being found on social media! Have you been a victim of a dodgy translator? How would you even know – not until the deal turns sour or litigation ensues perhaps. There is a lot more to choosing the right Chinese Translator than NAATI accreditation.

China had 50% of the world economy in the Ming Dynasty. Present estimates have China back at this level by about 2050. Isn’t it time you thought about engaging with China?

Just think, what will China need to build 50,000 new skyscrapers? The opportunity remains huge and Australian businesses need to get their skates on.
