The Thai teachers and students noted that the “JISU International Study Tour” not only improved their practical Chinese language skills but also provided them with a profound understanding of China’s history, culture, social development, and urban landscapes. They expressed their anticipation for deeper exchanges and cooperation with JISU in the future, aiming to contribute to friendly Sino-Thai relations.

This study camp has provided a platform for mutual learning and cultural exchange between Chinese and Thai youth. JISU will take this opportunity to further expand its international exchange programs, help faculty and students broaden their global perspectives, and enhance their cross-cultural communication skills. In doing so, the university aims to make new and greater contributions to the high-quality development of international education and the cultivation of outstanding talents with global competitiveness.
