The "Hometown Market" Carnival, hosted by the organizing committee of the Macau Patriotic Association Hometown Market Carnival and jointly organized by 26 patriotic associations, will be held from the 15th to the 17th at the Fisherman's Wharf in Macau. Chen Mingjin, Director of the Office of the Organizing Committee of the event, stated that the participation of 26 patriotic hometown associations in this event is of great significance. With a strong sense of hometown sentiment as the bond, it has condensed the passionate patriotism, further enhanced the patriotism of Macau citizens, and effectively conveyed the positive energy of patriotism, love for Macau, and love for hometown. It is reported that hometown associations have a long history in Macau, with the aim of uniting and serving fellow villagers, promoting unity and mutual assistance, and bringing the culture of their respective hometowns to Macau to jointly create Macau's unique cultural characteristics. By organizing various hometown cultural and economic promotion activities, organizing young people to return to their hometowns to seek roots, etc., we will continue to deepen the friendship of exchange and integration between Macao and the mainland. This time, 26 clubs carefully organized 40 booths, covering specialty sales, intangible cultural heritage experiences, food taste, cultural performances, etc., working together to bring authentic hometown culture to the citizens. There is also a prize winning quiz game on national knowledge at the event site. (New Society)
