Loss of traditional Chinese culture

Xi Jinping visited Beijing Normal University and talked with students and faculty on Sep 9, 2014, the eve of Teachers' Day in China. "I really don't want to see all the Chinese classics being deleted from the textbooks and being replaced by their Western counterparts. It is sad if we don't keep true to our culture. The classics should be ingrained in students' minds and become the cultural genes of Chinese people," said Xi during the visit. [Photo/Weibo account of Xinhua]
