I don’t agree with the Western critique of ethnicity in China
A parallel forum titled "Understanding the Chinese Nation: Unity in Diversity for Common Development" was held on Wednesday during the 8th Understanding China Conference in Guangzhou, South China's Guangdong Province. Martin Jacques, a visiting professor at Tsinghua University, and former senior fellow, POLIS, Cambridge University, was invited as a guest speaker at the parallel forum. What is striking about China is, first of all, its significant ethnic diversity, he remarked in an exclusive interview with China News Network, noting that the Chinese nation's diversity in unity reflects greater tolerance compared to a single-ethnicity nation-state.
