CBC的新闻工作人员问到：加币的增值，会不会影响到国际学生的数量？

我们的校长说：我觉得不会。因为，学生都很富有。他们来这，都买全新的跑车。


做为一位校长，既然这么对媒体讲。给这个社会一个错概念。给这个社会的理解就是，中国人有钱，不在乎钱。

毕竟，决大部分中国学生还是做公车的。他这样的言行，是极片面，极不负责的。

Chinese students suffer as dollar soars
WebPosted Feb 12 2004 08:12 AM EST

SAINT JOHN ― International students at the University of New Brunswick in Saint John say the strong Canadian dollar means the cost of their education is rising.

Nearly half the foreign students are from China and most of them arrived here with American dollars.

Business graduate Raymond Guo says Chinese students have a lot of anxiety about the Canadian dollar and watch the currency market carefully. "Most of our classmates, we look onto the internet and we see the exchange rate and say, 'okay today the U.S. dollar is going up so let's exchange some U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars.'"

Guo says most Chinese students won't leave if the loonie continues to rise, but he's worried Canada will lose its competitive edge with the high dollar forcing new students to think twice before signing up at UNBSJ.

UNBSJ's associate vice president Mohammed Kabir says most of the Chinese students on campus are affluent and can afford higher costs. "A large number of these students are buying new cars, they're spending a lot of money in the local economy. This is something that does not have a huge big impact on their cost of getting educated here."

Kabir says the students in trouble are the ones who didn't properly plan for changes in the currency.

这位校长的联系方式，就在上面。认为他的言论是极不负责的，可以发EMAIL他，跟他指出来。我是不敢相信，做为UNBSJ的副校长，会有这样的言论。

许多的中国学生在这里确实过于招摇，看完这段新闻后，，他们应该收敛了。不过这帮老外拿我们当成冤大头。学费涨个没完， 还说我们不在乎。日！

这还不简单，论坛里面每个人发封email，她的邮箱就要爆，让她尝尝我们团结的厉害

说成这样， 中国学生想不被偷都难了

就在上面。

我听了的， 以下是我发给他的邮件内容：
Dear Mr. Kabir,
I am an international student of UNBSJ from China. I listened the CBC morning News on Feb 12, 2004. Here is your response about the attitudes of Chinese students towards the low US exchange rate:
"UNBSJ's associate vice president Mohammed Kabir says most of the Chinese students on campus are affluent and can afford higher costs. "A large number of these students are buying new cars, they're spending a lot of money in the local economy. This is something that does not have a huge big impact on their cost of getting educated here."

Kabir says the students in trouble are the ones who didn't properly plan for changes in the currency '

After I listened and read the news, I found I was insult from what you said. And it does hurts. I am not that kind of students which you considered "affluent". My family works very hard to support me for my education. And I myself work very hard too. I addmit that what you said is partly true, but it is only just partly true.I believe there are a lot of students like me would not be happy if they heard the news. It is inresponseble for you to say that. some of students lost hundreds even thounds of dolor because of the rise of Canadian dolor.
I hope we can hear from you.
Regards,
Qianmin. Ma

Hi, Kabir, Muhammed,

I’m a Student in UNBSJ and I come from China. I read your words on CBC and your talking really made my friends and I up sad.
I can’t believe those words came from our president.
First of all, I don’t think your opinions are objective. You only see one side of Chinese students. Some of them did buy brand new sports cars. However, the majority still take bus to school.
Second, your words expressed a wrong image to the whole society. It will have a huge impact on Chinese students. People in Saint John will think all Chinese students are rich and don’t care about their money. There were many broke-ins among Chinese students. I’m afraid that it will cause more broke-ins happen. As students, we need safe living environment.
Third, you said: “most of the Chinese students on campus are affluent and can afford higher costs”. I want to ask you some questions. Have you ever thought from student side? Have you talked to a Chinese student about his or her opinion? Have you noted that the tuition is high and students are disappointed?
I want to give you a simple calculation and it will approve high Canadian dollars do affect Chinese Students.
In August, 2002, 100 Canadian dollars = 522 RMB (Approximate)
In Augest, 2003, 100 Canadian dollars = 584 RMB (Approximate)
In January, 2004, 100 Canadian dollars = 647 RMB (Approximate)
For example, One Chinese student’s tuition in 2002-2003 academic year( Sep to Apr) was $9068 Canadian dollars. It equalled ￥47334.96 RMB. One Chinese student’s tuition in 2003-2004 academic year (Sep to Apr) was $9777.00 Canadian dollars. It equalled ￥63257.19 RMB( at $1CA = ￥6.47 RMB) and ￥57097.68 RMB ( at $1CA=￥5.84 RMB).
According to the example, a Chinese student spend ￥9762.72 RMB to ￥15922.23 RMB more only on tuition expense.
Fourth, you said: “the students in trouble are the ones who didn't properly plan for changes in the currency”. I think it really doesn’t make sense. First of all, we are student. We are in the University to learn how to knowledge in order to plan for changes in the currency. We are not economist and even economist didn’t expect Canadian dollars appreciate to this much. There is a Chinese student whose GPA is 4.1 and he will say the same thing as other Chinese students says. We say “the U.S. dollar is going up so let's exchange some U.S. dollars for Canadian dollars”.
At the end, I think your words are not objective and you shouldn’t say to the public with your subjective opinion as Vice president in the university.
Your words really made all Chinese students disappointed. I hope you can apologize to all Chinese students.
