COPENHAGEN - She has just come back to Copenhagen from her trip to China, and here she is, already packing again. Tina Christensen, president of the European Mahjong Association, is preparing for a tough working week at the Climate Conference in Durban. She has a 21 hours journey to South Africa ahead of her. So, not much time to tell Mahjong News about the Fifth China Majiang Championship on board a cruise ship in the Yangtze river she participated in last week. That will come later; she will be back in Denmark on December 5th. But one thing she can tell: the next World Mahjong Championship will take place next year in China for sure. Likely in November, but neither date nor place is decided yet. “I have stressed that it is crucial for European players to know these facts very soon.”
