A dialect of our Own

I saw a discussion about 5 or 6 days ago regarding whether English are too forced to learn on Schools. I think we need a common language which is not only used in countries but also world wide and English is that language which have helped nations to communicate with other nations. I think apart from the languages we use at home and the national language, English should also be included, I am saying this even though English is not my mother tongue, but including this language at least in schools can help the students to advance in the future, because when people grow up they need to communicate with others in various fields where your mother tongue is not enough. I even saw a comment from one person who's from China, and he tells that their country is becoming a super power, and he thinks its because they have assayed learning English even though they are proud of their mother tongue as they were earlier.
