About My Hope
 

I like to learn different kinds of languages, e.g. Japanese, French, Thai and Tagalo (Philippino language). I am also enjoyed much to travel. I may see how the other people live in the world. There are so many creatures and so many beautiful scenery, we must do our best to preserve all these good things. In the past, out from our selfishness, we have done too much to destroy the harmony of the nature. If we still keep on living in this habit, it's the same to say that we steal the resources from our next generation. So, please consider the other people, our children and also the other creatures.

I hope to see a strong, wealthy and democratic China. Throughout these few years, I can see our China is gradually on the right track to my dream. Although there are a lot of matters needed to be improved, I still believe that my hope can realize in my life.
