Makin' it in China: Iran and Kazakhstan

This interview podcast features two segments, each profiling a foreign expert making significant contributions in China. The first segment highlights Ehsan Doostmohammadi, an Iranian sinologist who has translated numerous classic Chinese texts into Persian, fostering cultural exchange. The second segment focuses on Saulebek Kabylbekov, a Kazakh eye doctor who has served the Daqing community for over two decades, mentoring numerous Chinese ophthalmologists and receiving the Chinese Government Friendship Award. Both stories showcase the positive impact of foreign professionals in China and the mutual benefits of cultural and professional exchange. For example, Ehsan's work has made classical Chinese philosophy accessible to a wider Iranian audience, while Saulebek's expertise has significantly advanced ophthalmology in Daqing.
