Who cares about native speakers ? English is an international language as a 1st, 2nd and 3rd language.

Native speakers of mandarin (or any other language) don't avoid learning English do they, the Chinese are buying our schools, studying over here and changing their names to English ones to boost career prospects. Thats how popular English is...
