The concept of funeral reform is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people

The film involves funeral themes, which is enough to see that the society's attention to funeral business is increasing day by day.

After years of efforts, funeral reform has been deepened throughout the country, and the funeral industry has made great progress. Implement cremation, reform burial, save funeral land, civilized and frugal funerals, ban burning on the streets, low-carbon sacrifice sweeping... The funeral concept of green civilization and environmental protection has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has become a social consensus.

At the same time, the government plays a role in guiding the civilized and frugal funeral value orientation. All parts of the country, adjust the funeral policy for the benefit of the people, establish a moderately inclusive system for the benefit of the people, introduce ecological burial reward and compensation methods, etc., and give rewards and subsidies to ecological burials.

Through funeral reform, the modern concept of civilization, thriftiness and ecology will be imperceptibly transmitted to the masses, guiding everyone to establish the concept of "filial piety must be done as soon as possible", reflecting filial piety to the elders in daily care, and strengthening spiritual commemoration and civilized farewell in funeral activities.
