Why would they?  Chinese speakers would like to use Chinese characters
when communicating with other Chinese speakers, but when they're
communicating with non-Chinese speakers, Chinese characters are pretty

there are some symbols other than the Latin letters and Arabic numerals
that would be easier for them?
