Li Zijian, President of the Education University of Hong Kong, accepted an exclusive interview with a reporter from China News Service. He believes that the construction of national identity is an internalized and continuously strengthened process of self-cultivation and self-identification.
Education should play an important role in promoting this deepening process, and society also needs to mobilize its forces, he said. He agreed that the formation of national Identity does not happen overnight, but this matter "does not have to be done slowly."
