Chinese President.
Yesterday: Who (Hu) is president of China? Yes.
Today: Who (Hu) is president of China? No, she (Xi) is.
There, now you know how to pronounce the name. No doubt Fox will call him Misterrr Zee, or President Ksee or some other American contortion. But it is very simple.
President Xi (pron: She, could also be zhee)
There is a very famous chinese poem by Du Fu who lived in the 7C. It was satirical and poked fun at the leaders' 'princelings' and part of it said:
'Suddenly, I saw a great mansion appeared in front of me - and my father would have five rooms in that mansion.'
The seventh century version of 'my dad's bigger than your Dad.' Mr. Xi's dad was one of the hugely respected 'old guard' of China. His dad was on the long march and was punished in 1966 in the cultural revolution.
Bit like little Bush really. Perhaps they'll get on well.
