What is Culture and Civilization ? (for me)
In this video,im going to talk about what is culture and civilization. Culture is the characteristics of a particular group of people, defined by everything from language, religion, cuisine, social habits, music and arts.So,im Chinese Hokkein ,which is the largest region of Chinese in Malaysia.What we really different from others region of Chinese is we usually celebrate " Bai Tian Gong" festivals or also called as Hokkien New Year Celebrations.We thank to the heaven god by using a pair of sugarcane plants and placed one on each side of the offering table with foods infront door of the house. The pair of the sugarcanes symbolises unity, cooperation and strength. The sugarcane itself is a symbol of harmony and a token which can bring good and ’sweet’ results. The very straightness of the sugarcane stem also ensures that the Hokkiens can become a clan of honest and sincere people.There will be some pictures shown in this video. :-)
