I always do. It is one way of showing our gratitude to our country and our elders. We are now civilized because and we awe that from the people who started our tradition and culture. It is okay to embrace the modern world, but we should respect still respect our tradition and culture because it is one of our treasure. We should be proud of it.

there's so many culture and tradition in my country and of course I feel really proud of it. But in this modern world many people don't have time to do it. Almost all tradition in my country need a long ceremony to do and nowadays only people who live in the village who continuously do it. In this time, we need money and many people working hard, don't really have time to think about tradition again. After work they already feel tired. I don't say all people like this and I disagree with people who ignore their own culture but we must see the situation now. Furthermore, I think government help is needed if we really want to continue our country's original tradition and culture.

I kinda do but then I sorta dont. There are some things in my culture that I dont follow. I respect my culture but times are changing and so are the cultures. Its becoming more modern and certain aspects are changing in them. Such as views of women, etc. I am proud of my culture and always will be.

Yes, I still do. I think culture and traditions are part of every country. It's not only that we have to value our own culture and traditions but also the cultures and traditions of other countries, too when we are in that certain country.
