The educational department of East China's Jiangsu province will cooperate with foreign cities to set up 50 more Confucius Classes and three to five Confucius Institutes in two years, despite some criticism of the cultural project, according to the local government.

Ding Xiaochang, deputy director of the educational department, said that 200 volunteers and university teachers will be sent to Confucius Institutes and Classes from the province each year.

"We try to make the Confucius Institutes and Classes serve as a platform for educational, cultural and economic cooperation between China and other countries," Ding said. "The nonprofit program can forge friendships and mutual understanding if it is operated well."

According to the department, from 2008 to 2014, Jiangsu province established or helped set up 29 Confucius Institutes in Europe, North America and Africa.

Since 2004, when the first Confucius Institute was established in Uzbekistan, about 460 institutions and more than 710 Confucius Classrooms have been established in 123 countries and regions to teach the Chinese language and culture.

However, the establishment of Confucius Institutes and Classes has met with suspicion and criticism in some countries over the years, including some that have close ties with China.

In October, the educational department of Hunan province terminated its Confucius Institute program, which lasted less than five months, in Toronto, Canada, saying it had encountered unreasonable suspicions and unfair treatment.

Chen Li, a college teacher who worked for a Confucius Institute in Australia for one year, said the program should not be terminated because of ungrounded political criticism.

"People from different cultural backgrounds need to learn from each other to reach understanding," Chen said. "Simple termination or suspension of the Confucius Institutes will close the door to friendships between different countries."

To provide better teaching of Chinese culture and language, Jiangsu province is planning to compile new editions of textbooks for the Confucius Institutes, which will be easier for foreigners to understand.

The educational department also said that more emphasis will be placed on traditional Chinese culture instead of the popular and fashion cultures for learners to better understand the country.

It added that primary and middle school students, as well as college students, are welcomed to study in the province to communicate with residents and students.

In August, the provincial educational department launched a program that will grant 50,000 yuan ($8,180) to 90,000 yuan each year to qualified foreign students to attract 500,000 such students to study in Jiangsu every year.
