In Meng's view, although the Chinese Ministry of Education has been pushing forward in reforms, especially in attempts to alter the intensive university entrance exam system, educational exchanges with the West are also crucial: "this is not in terms of the West being superior, but they would be helpful in allowing Chinese students to step back and question many previous assumptions." Deeper reforms need to be made in the education sector that go beyond government-sanctioned programmes, yet remnants of the Cultural Revolution may well be visible in the lack of critical teaching styles that are too entrenched to be changed overnight.
В этом секторе должны быть проведены глубокие реформы, которые выходят за рамки санкционированных правительством программ, но следы Культурной возможно все ещё будут заметны из-за отсутствия критического стиля преподавания, который засел слишком глубоко, чтобы изменить его в одночасье.
