Yeah, so what is our heritage? This being a top-down
society, if the leaders don't express an interest in preserving and
publicising it, who else will?
Double that.
If the government doesn't do more, who will? Especially when
they're the ones that are driving the country into
globalisation.
Just look at the Chinese population lately. Its quite rare to
see kids in traditional clothes on CNY anymore.
The other rising trend i see though are Chinese joining in and
Dressing up during Hari Raya. It is definitely nice to see these
kind of bonding amongst the main races. And from the feedback I get
frm friends of different racial background, they think its rather
fun to dress up during these festive holidays.
So maybe even if whilst it look like we are loosing our
tradition and heritage, the younger generation somehow find ways to
pick up and create their own way of preserving traditions..
