China is a multi-ethnic, multi-lingual, multi-character country. In addition to Han, China has 55 ethnic minorities. The population of minority is one hundred and six million and they use more than 130 kinds of language, up to 60 kinds of characters. The success or failure of the implementation of the National language policy is not only related to the development of each nation's political, economic, cultural conditions that are supposed to improve the overall quality of all ethnic groups, but also related to the country's long term stability. Therefore, the minority language work has always been highly regarded. This paper describes the current situation of the minority language use and the basic content of the national language policy, also summarizes the achievements of the minority language work since the founding of New China, and points out the existing problems connected to those issues. This paper provides the basic reference for the future development or amendment of the minority language policy.
