Testing my Mandarin in the Wyoming Legislature!
A couple of weeks ago we had Mr. Chu, one of Taiwan’s delegation who has was here to further extend the conversation Wyoming is having with Taiwan to increase economic relationships. In meeting Mr. Chu I tried to scrape some of the rust off my Mandarin for my experience in that country in the 70’s. Speaker Harshman listening to the conversation asked that I introduce Mr. Chu to the House members the following day. Mr. Chu was very kind and pretended like he understood my Mandarin, and I fooled the members of the House who thought I actually knew what I was doing.
