Today is the
Chinese Dragon Boat Festival. Modern Cancer Hospital expressed their best
wishes and regards to many overseas patients from Indonesia, Philippines ,
Bangladesh, Vietnam, Thailand, etc by sending them the zongzi. We hope hospitalized patients have a warm and
harmonious festival and gain more strength to fight against cancer.
At this specified day, many traditional customs and activities are held by people in China and even by some people in neighbouring countries. Among these customs are dragon boat racing, eating zongzi (pyramid-shaped glutinous rice wrapped in reed or bamboo leaves), wearing a perfume pouch, tying five-colour silk thread and hanging mugwort leaves and calamus.
