QYSMT & MOTEK Celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival: Sharing Ancient Chinese Traditions
As global partners deeply rooted in SMT Industry, QYSMT and MOTEK in celebrating the vibrant Dragon Boat Festival (Duanwu Jie), occurring this year on May 31st. This ancient UNESCO-recognized festival offers a fascinating glimpse into Chinese culture, and we invite our international friends and partners to discover its spirit.
Core Traditions Explained Briefly:
Dragon Boat Races: Experience the thrilling spectacle of long, decorated boats raced by synchronized teams to drumbeats. Like the precision we value at QYSMT and MOTEK, teamwork is key! This tradition honors the patriotic poet Qu Yuan (c. 340-278 BC).
Zongzi (Sticky Rice Dumplings): Savor these unique pyramid-shaped treats! Glutinous rice with sweet or savory fillings is wrapped tightly in bamboo leaves and steamed – a testament to care and craftsmanship, values shared in our industries.
Health & Protection Customs: Ancient practices focused on warding off summer ailments. Look for fragrant mugwort hung on doors and colorful scented herb sachets (Xiang Bao) worn for good fortune.
