我贊同許多東亞學(xué)者的觀點(diǎn)，東方文明可以醫(yī)治盛行于西方世界的一些頑疾。西方世界個(gè)人自由主義泛濫導(dǎo)致了極端個(gè)人主義、性關(guān)系混亂以及過度暴力行為，對(duì)此我們不能視而不見 。 // 相反，東方社會(huì)的自我約束力，集體責(zé)任感以及溫厚儒雅的傳統(tǒng)倒可以消除西方社會(huì)的許多惡疾。// 在這個(gè)信息時(shí)代，世界已縮小成一個(gè)地球村。這個(gè)地球村里，不再有什么涇渭分明的東方世界和西方世界，我們是生活在同一個(gè)社區(qū)里的鄰里。// 因此，我們彼此之間無(wú)須沖突。我們之間的關(guān)系應(yīng)該是一種友好合作，平等互補(bǔ)的關(guān)系。我們應(yīng)該相互理解，相互學(xué)習(xí)，和睦共處。//

　　I share the same view with many East Asian scholars that the Oriental civilization can heal some of the prevailing, stubborn Western ills. We should not turn a blind eye to the fact that individual freedom has gone overboard in the West, resulting in extreme individualism, sexual promiscuity and excessive use of violence.// By contrast, self-discipline, corporate responsibility and the pacific tradition of East Asia can offset many Western vices.// At this age of information, the world has shrunk as a global village in which there will be no clear- cut worlds of the East and the West any more, but a world of one community with neighboring families.// Therefore, we do not necessarily have to come into clash with each other. Our relationship is one of friendly cooperation, equality and mutual complementarity and therefore, we should understand and learn from each other, and live in harmony.//
