There is no holiday on Chinese New Year's Eve in 2024, and netizens are scolding, what is the reason behind it?
In a few days, the Spring Festival will be coming, and I feel that the flavor of the New Year is getting closer and closer. For Chinese, the Spring Festival is the most important day of the year. On this day, we are reunited as a family to celebrate the beginning of the new year. However, for migrant workers, this year's Spring Festival may be a little different. According to the notice issued, this year's Spring Festival holiday starts from February 10th to February 17th, and there are eight days of annual leave. In fact, eight days is not too short, but there is a jaw-dropping highlight hidden here, that is, there is no holiday on Chinese New Year's Eve. After reading this news, many netizens were not happy, after all, Chinese New Year's Eve is a day that has been passed down for thousands of years for Chinese. In the past, on Chinese New Year's Eve, many people had already gone home to prepare for the New Year. On Chinese New Year's Eve, people will carry out many activities, such as sticking Spring Festival couplets, hanging lanterns, eating reunion dinners, etc., especially for many people who go out to work, they have long been looking forward to this day to be able to go home and reunite with their families. Everyone watched the Spring Festival Gala together and spent one warm and unforgettable Chinese New Year's Eve after another. But now that this Chinese New Year's Eve holiday is gone, what is the reason behind this?
Reunion dinner to watch the Spring Festival Gala, paste the Spring Festival, for Chinese, Chinese New Year's Eve is really an important day. In this case, why should the Chinese New Year's Eve holiday be cancelled in 2024? First of all, we need to know that no matter how he arranges his vacation, he is actually a balanced art. Probably for many people, tradition is a very important thing, and there is often no absolute black and white. Just like Chinese New Year's Eve is not a holiday, there may be its reasonableness. According to experts' explanations, the reason why this Chinese New Year's Eve is not a holiday is actually to make up for the holiday. If you think about it, if you count Chinese New Year's Eve, then this annual leave to go home is nine days. If such a holiday is really arranged, there will definitely be a situation where some intelligent positions are not running well. Let's take courier, for example. In the past, when sending express delivery during the New Year, because those courier brothers had already gone home for the New Year, there would be a shortage of labor during this period. Perhaps the expert will cancel the Chinese New Year's Eve holiday with this special situation in mind, but this will definitely have its drawbacks. On the one hand, because there is no holiday removed, this will definitely affect the mood during the New Year. On the other hand, it will also increase the difficulty for outsiders to go home, and you dare not imagine what the highway will be blocked at that time, or how difficult it will be to grab train tickets and bullet train tickets. In response to the problem of not having a holiday on Chinese New Year's Eve, the state has actually made other arrangements. Because like this holiday notice, he is not mandatory. This means that each unit and each company can decide to give employees an extra day off. That is to say, although there is no holiday on Chinese New Year's Eve, if the bosses pay attention to human feelings, then we can earn an extra day of vacation.
But the absence of a holiday on Chinese New Year's Eve will definitely bring some problems.
The first is the impact on customs. Chinese New Year's Eve is a very important day in traditional Chinese culture, and we all know that. But in fact, with the development of the times, many traditional customs are now being slowly forgotten, and Chinese New Year's Eve is no exception. In the past, on Chinese New Year's Eve, we would go to post Spring Festival couplets, hang lanterns, and have reunion dinners. But now many families are left with reunion dinners, and if the Chinese New Year's Eve holiday is canceled, many customs will begin to disappear.
The second is the will to the mood of the people. In fact, no matter what the holiday arrangement is, as long as you send it out, there will always be some people who are not satisfied. Especially for Chinese New Year's Eve, this is a day that many people value. On this day, they reunite with their families and feel the strong flavor of the New Year together. If you cancel it for him, people will naturally feel lost and resistant. Especially for the older generation, this is unacceptable.
