Facebook Apologises to Chinese President for Wrong Translation

Dubai – Masaader News

Facebook apologised for translating Chinese President Xi Jinping’s name wrongly, according to BBC.

The translation gaffe came to light on the second day of Mr Xi’s state visit to Myanmar.

On Saturday, Mr Xi met Myanmar’s leader Aung San Suu Kyi to enhance bilateral relations.

In Burmese Facebook posts about their meeting, Mr Xi’s name in English was translated erroneously.

His name appeared as “Mr Shithole” in Facebook posts shared on the official accounts of Ms Suu Kyi and her office.
