Although the audience ratings of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala hit a new low this year, it still fails to stay out of trouble and harsh criticisms.

Yesterday, 18 net users file a complaint to the country's media watchdog, protesting against the discriminatory contents in the show.

How serious is the problem?

Topic2 Are Chinese still holding on to old Spring Festival customs

Today is the fifth day of the Chinese Lunar New Year, which is the God of Wealth's birthday. In northern China, people eat jiaozi, or dumplings, on the morning of powu(破五).

Spring Festival is a time to observe old traditions and celebrate China's cultural inheritance. But the way this major holiday is celebrated by the 1.3 billion Chinese people is undergoing big changes each year.

Should we be happy about the changes or not?

Topic3 Do we need to change our drinking culture?

In China, drinking is the major part of the festivities.

The Chinese Lunar New Year is the season of excess, and while the focus is usually on fabulous food and the mandate to eat, the drinking culture requires guys to drink, drink, drink.

But is the culture really a good one to keep or is it time for us to change it?
