Wedding at a friend's house in Afghanistan [Original. True record 576 words read 6 minutes]

#妙笔生花创作挑战#当有音乐响起, it is unusual in the current Afghanistan. Follow the sound and see that the music comes from the house next door, and there is a wedding car decorated with flowers parked in the courtyard, indicating that there is a newlyweds who have completed their marriage tonight. Since the Taliban came to power, they have ordered a ban on entertainment, even in cars, and music is not allowed, and some Afghan colleagues like to enjoy music while driving, but as soon as the Taliban ban came out, it was rare to see him playing music while driving. Once, when I was out playing music in my car, I joked with him that music is forbidden in the Taliban, and he said "No problam" nonchalantly, but quickly turned off the music when he was almost at the checkpoint.

A few days ago, there were media reports that the music system on the car was dismantled in one place, some musical instruments were destroyed by local officials, and the wedding of several friends we were invited to attend did not have the previous music and dancing sessions, but went to chat, waited for dinner, and left after eating, lacking a cheerful and festive atmosphere. Through interviews, observations, and the media, it is clear that there is a large number of opposition voices to these bans, and there is a lack of public opinion base, including law enforcement and government officials.

Videos can be seen on some social platforms, some young men and women are also playing entertainment parties, and there are also videos of Taliban officials singing and dancing. Some enterprises, people, and guests who came to visit Chinatown felt that Afghanistan was not as reported by the media, but felt very good, and thought that the media was misleading the audience. According to media reports, some people oppose some of the Taliban's erroneous policies through formal channels and at government-organized meetings. The torrent of history is mighty, and those who conform to it are prosperous. (ENDS)
