A few hours ago, we celebrated The New Year, 2018 and our Independence Day. We usually take our families to parks or huge places where people gather to enjoy themselves. My question, why don't we celebrate the Chinese New Year? They are more than a billion and a half. They could be about more than 20% of the world. populations.

Suasdee Jirakaren! Wela nan, khun khung chan! Where have you been? My condolences. I have heard that your mom passed out some time ago. May God have mercy on her soul. I agree with you, it depends on the culture of the nations. Thanks for your comment.
depends on culture and amazing festival, thanks for sharing.
Jika saya katakan, anda tidak akan mempercayainiya. I just want a lot of holidays during the season. Unfortunately, our independence day and the new year are at the same time. We have only one day off. If we celebrate the Chinese new year, that makes it two days off, instead of one. Thanks Andy for your comment.
Xie xie George Lee! Zoo da hao! I really appreciate your valuable information. It was just a thought, why not celebrate the Chinese New Year? The people represent more than thirty percent of the world populations. Thanks for that story about the demon of China.
Thanks Evangelina for pressing the like button.
Khaili mumnoon Muhammad. China and India have the biggest populations of the world. Can we celebrate their new year? Thanks Muhammed for your comment.
Lay lam Tek April, I was mistaken. I thought that you celebrate the same Christmas New York. Thanks April.
Cam on April. I am glad that you and China have the same habits and traditions. Thanks for the valuable information about Chinese New Year.
Imperialism Imposes a lot of things to nations! English and Western Calendar are one of those things!
We celebrate the traditional new year the same time as China. why? Because we use lunar callendar (moon callendar). China and Vietnam are agricultural countries, lunar callendar helps us to find the right time for planting rice and cereals, vegetables and trees. It has much influence to traditional culture so all special occasions in my country we use lunar callendar, such as : new year, birthday, dead day, wedding day, dead day ceremony, the good days and bad days for you ... :))
Nowadays when east and west have tight relations, to make everything simple and convenient, we use western callender in dailly life, but tradition is something lasts forever and ever.
