Why doesn t China set up the Mid Autumn Festival as a legal holiday?

In our country, it is very complicated to legislate a matter, and it has to be passed by the National People's Congress or the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, which is a long time, please be patient, I am also waiting, because this will allow you to rest for a few more days.

The three traditional festivals of Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival should be like the Spring Festival and the Five Days.

I.X. 1. New Year's Day will be included in China's statutory holidays, which will play a positive role in inheriting and promoting the traditional culture of the Chinese nation and improving the quality of life of the people. Couldn't agree more.

The deputies to the National People's Congress proposed that traditional festivals be included in statutory holidays, but they have not yet been universally implemented.

Legal Analysis: No. Statutory holidays are New Year's Day, Spring Festival, International Labor Day, National Day and other holiday holidays stipulated by laws and regulations.

Legal basis: Labor Law of the People's Republic of China Article 40 An employer shall arrange leave for employees during the following holidays in accordance with the law: (1) New Year's Day; (2) Spring Festival; (3) International Labor Day; (4) National Day; (5) Other holidays and holidays provided for by laws and regulations.

Mid-Autumn Festival: 3 days off from September 19th to 21st. I will go to work on Saturday, September 18.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a national holiday. Since 2008, the Mid-Autumn Festival has been listed as a national holiday. August 15 of the lunar calendar is one of the important traditional festivals in China.

August 15 is in the middle of autumn, so it is called Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Mid-autumn.

The autumnal equinox always falls around August 15, when the sky is exceptionally clear. Gu Shiyun: "August 15 is bright".

Therefore, in the changes of history, people's activities of worshipping the moon and appreciating the tomato cover and selling the moon are gradually fixed on the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15. In the rituals before the Qin and Han dynasties, there were already regulations for the autumn equinox and the moon. On the night of the autumn equinox, the Son of Heaven will go to the Moon Temple in the western suburbs of the national capital to worship the moon.

Customs

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, people living in foreign lands look up at the bright moon like a jade plate and can't help but think of their families. With the help of the bright moon, they express their feelings of missing their hometown and family, so people call the Mid-Autumn Festival "Reunion Festival". On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the custom of eating mooncakes is the most popular.

When people eat round mooncakes, they also earnestly hope that their families will be reunited forever.

People tremble and amuse the people to make up many mythological stories about this festival, such as "Chang'e Running to the Moon", "Wu Sullen Staring at Gang Hua Gui", "Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine" and so on.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a national holiday. The official holiday is one day, and in previous years, it was combined with Saturday and Sunday for a total of three days off.

This year, because of the combination of the National Day and other weekends and the relationship between the nine consecutive days of work after the long Song Envy holiday, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is only combined with one of the Saturdays and Sundays, and only two days off, and the other day is transferred to the National Day holiday.

I hope my Pai Shi can be helpful to you.

Hello, yes, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a legal holiday, I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

Yes, a day off is the bare minimum.
