China Bans Singing Of Its National Anthems At Weddings & Funerals by Hadewahlay(op): 11:06am On Dec 14, 2014
According to a statement by Chinese Xinhua
News Agency, China’s national anthem can
no longer be performed at weddings, funerals,
balls or other non-political functions. They
can now only be performed at certain
dignified events.
The anthem, known as the March of the
Volunteers' may be played at the start of
important celebrations or public political
gatherings, formal diplomatic occasions or
significant international gatherings.
The anthem can also be performed when
Chinese athletes win medals and “at arenas
where national dignity should be fought for
and safeguarded".
The Chinese government said the reason is to
“standardize proper etiquette for the national
anthem, which reflects national independence
and liberation, a prosperous, strong country
and the affluence of the people”
People who break the rules will be “criticized
and corrected“, Xinhua added.

Because they are patriots to the blood. They live and feel their country on daily basis.
