Mandarin? Taiwan haven't experienced a cultural revolution and they speak Mandarin. They also preserved quite a lot the Chinese culture.Quote

I find it more useful than mandarin, as i tend to appreciate chinese culture. From personal observation cantonese tends to carry a lot more of the chinese culture as hong kong didnt experience any of the cultural revolution going on in the mainland during the years of Mao's reign.

I don't think thats a reason to learn Cantonese over learn Mandarin.
