Chief Marketing Officer of the Manulife-Sinochem Financial Limited, Liang Guoxian, said that the successful launch of the investigation report on the current state of affairs of Chinese parent-child education is a better and scientific way for Chinese parents to educate their children. In the future, Manulife-Sinochem will keep devoting its resources to public welfare and offer their compassion to every part of society.

The report elaborates the relevant background of the investigation on the current situation of Chinese parent-child education, provides an overview and basic analysis of the data generated by the survey as well as suggestions for solving the current problems pertaining to family education.
