Once upon a time, New Year's Day and New Year's Eve were one of the most important days for the masses across the country to celebrate, but New Year's Day in 2024 is estimated to become the most "deserted" day. According to incomplete statistics, many places across the country have issued notices that local areas will not organize Chinese New Year's Eve activities, and also require crowds not to gather, reasonably disperse, and celebrate the festival in a civilized manner. These cities that have issued notices include Guangzhou, Shanghai, Nanjing, Wuhan and other first-tier city business districts and scenic spots.
The cancellation of this year's New Year's Day event has brought a bit of gloom to what should have been a lively holiday. Many netizens expressed their incomprehension and even anger. They have questioned: Why didn't they even fire the Spring Festival cannon, and canceled all activities on New Year's Day?
As netizens said, every year's New Year's Eve activities are self-organized, and they say no every year, but there are still many people who go to specific places every year to feel the New Year's Eve atmosphere
The official notice is to say: act autonomously, don't look for him if something happens, but think about it, it's impossible
In the end, China's New Year's Day became an international holiday, while Christmas and Halloween became a Chinese holiday
Netizens understand that first, there is no money, but they are afraid of accidents. The New Year is not allowed to fire, and now there is no activity on New Year's Day, so isn't New Year's Day a lifeless feeling.
However, the official cancellation of the organization of activities can also be understood as for the sake of the safety of the people, recalling the stampede on New Year's Day in Shanghai that year, vividly:
At 23:35 on December 31, 2014, during the Chinese New Year's Eve event, because many tourists and citizens gathered on the Bund in Shanghai to welcome the New Year, someone fell unbalanced at the bottom of the steps of a pedestrian passage, which caused many people to fall and collapse, resulting in a crowded stampede, resulting in 36 deaths and 49 injuries.
For such a decision, many netizens do not buy it. They believe that the government is too conservative and imposes too many restrictions on the people's joie de vivre and freedom. There is some truth to this view, but we need to understand that safety always comes first. The State must take full account of the security and interests of the people when formulating policies.
The cancellation of the New Year's Day event is a complex issue involving many factors. We need to look at this issue rationally and analyze and understand it from multiple perspectives. There are other ways we can celebrate the holiday: for example, we can enjoy the holiday with family and friends, traveling, watching movies, etc
What do you think about the cancellation of the New Year's Day event?
