That’s exactly what I was thinking. Wikipedia says Mandarin is the official language of the People’s Republic of China, the Republic of China (Taiwan), and Singapore.

We know that the Chinese will outright slaughter Arabs without hesitation
if they start to much trouble. So yes, learning Chinese would be beneficial
at our current rate of isolationism and pacifism.

Chinese at least has the need to be learned at an early age, or else it takes 6 or more years to learn a tonal language, version 2 for non-tonal like Spanish.
