The Lantern Festival is one of the most important festivals in Chinses culture, which marks the end of the Chinese New Year(Spring Festival) celebration and symbolizes the reunion of family. People usually celebrate it by eating tangyuan(yuanxiao), appreciating lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, and setting off fireworks.

However, most GTIIT students' parents will not celebrate it with their children this year. For better academic performances, more than 150 students, accounting for about 1/3 of the students, choose to back to GTIIT for Exam B. Although they are far away, the parents sincerely and deeply extend greetings, wishing their children a happy lantern festival, and GTIIT a promising future.

Father of Wang Letian (Class 2021, CE) @Changsha,Hunan

GTIIT is the first Sino-foreign cooperative university that introduces quality educational resources from Israel to China, focusing on educating pioneering leaders, researchers and scientists with global vision.

This year marks the great achievement of the 40th anniversary of China's reform and opening-up. China is in urgent need of innovation, science and technology.

I believe that GTIIT will cultivate cutting-edge scientific talents thus to promote the rapid development of China.

I wish that GTIIT can make continuous progress in all undertakings in the year 2019.

Happy Lantern Festival!

Remember to call and say "Hi" to your parents.
