More Public Holidays Suggested to Sustain Tradition

Two lawmakers have proposed more public holidays in China to remind the younger generation of the value of their traditional culture amid increasing popularity of western holidays.

 

Huo Fuhua and Chen Xuexi, both Guangdong-based deputies to the 10th National People's Congress, said Sunday that the people in China should be given at least one day off on some important occasions that have been cherished since ancient times.

 

They suggest an extra day off on the eve of the Chinese New Year, or the traditional Spring Festival as it is often referred to, the Dragon Boat Festival which falls on the May 5th of the Chinese lunar calendar and the Mid-Autumn Festival on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month.

 

The latter two occasions are less celebrated among the youths these days, compared with the Valentine's Day and Christmas, said the deputies.

 

On the Dragon Boast Festival, Chinese traditionally wrap up glutinous rice with bamboo leaves to commemorate a patriotic poet who had drowned himself more than 2,000 years ago. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a popular family holiday featuring the full moon and tasty pastries.

 

The two deputies said China may also consider a day off for the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the Lunar New Year, the Clear and Bright Day in early April, an occasion to mourn their dear departed, and the Double Ninth Festival, a holiday for the elderly on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month.

 

"Most of these holidays are honored and widely celebrated in Hong Kong and Taiwan to carry forward ancient culture and traditions," acknowledged Huo.

 

At present, the Chinese are allowed to take a day off on Jan. 1and a week off on each of the three more essential holidays: the Chinese Lunar New Year, the Labor Day beginning May 1 and the National Day starting from Oct. 1.
