Hu Min, a representative of Chinese students, said when one’s perspective is confined to a small area, it is difficult to empathize with other cultures, thus causing various conflicts and upheavals. Hu believed that the world itself is borderless, so she called for tolerance, respect and appreciation of different cultures. “I hope all the young people at Peking University are able to demonstrate their global vision and broad-mindedness,” Hu said.
