  • Discussion keeps the world turning.

  • This is Round Table.

  • You're listening to Roundtable.

  • I'm Nao Honglin, joined by Steve and Lai Ming.

  • Coming up soon, we've got something really exciting to share.

  • China's Spring Festival just got some major recognition from UNESCO.

  • Yes, you heard that right.

  • The festive season, filled with fireworks, family dinners and red envelopes, is now officially part of our global culture Cultural heritage.

  • Roundtable is ready to explain why this celebration is so special and why the whole world is joining on the fun.

  • And in today's world, your phone is more than just a communication tool.

  • It's an extension of your organ, a statement about your aesthetic, and for many, a reflection of their personal styles.

  • As a result, phone accessories, once a practical necessity, have now become fashion forward investments.

  • But with prices for some cases, skyrocketing.

  • Let's find out who's buying or who's paying for these high priced phone cases and why.

  • But Spring Festival first.

  • China's Spring Festival is now a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.

  • Actually, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization on Wednesday inscribed Spring Festival Social practices of the Chinese people in celebration of traditional New Year on the representative list of the intangible Cultural heritage of humanity.

  • And the recognition of China Spring Festival is not only a win for China, but for the entire world we see.

  • The festive tradition, rich with family hope and cultural significance, has been keen to our hearts for generations.

  • So I think we want to take the occasion to describe what it actually is and why it deserves the attention, the recognition.
