Protect Traditional Chinese Culture

The protection of national and folk culture is of great significance to Chinese cultural diversity

and also to the harmonious development between local economic and social is reported

that the Guangdong government pays special attention to protecting Chaoju(潮剧)， a local drama born

in Chaozhou in the eastern Guangdong province.

In my opinion, some measures should be taken to protect traditional culture start

with, we should make a law to regulate the society’s s, we should draw more

people’s attention to it, for the more they know about the importance of culture protection, the

stronger support we can get from the public.

In a word, it is high time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable culture.

Lunar is a name for each year, such as the dog, the monkey, the tiger or one of the twelve

animals, and this year is the year of the horse.

the last evening of the old year, all the members of a family will get together and have a big

usually have jiaozi, fish, niangao and many other the first or second day of the new year,
