In addition to trying her best to provide public commentary locally, she and her team will also refute the fallacies of certain overseas organizations and politicians and offer advice.

He will do a good job of interpretation with the SAR government team, and work with the public, including colleagues in the education sector, to promote and complete the relevant legislative work.
