Whether writing about personal matters or discussing public matters, his writing style is always gentle, restrained yet profound, simple yet convincing.

Not only a personal reminiscence, “Memories to the Future” is also a connection between the past and the present, between memories and aspirations. There, readers encounter a profound knowledge, a delicate soul, and a heart that has never ceased to worry about the fate of the nation.
