Ancestor worship is part of our traditional culture. It is the duty of the descendants to furbish and maintain the graves of their forebears. To show their respect and filial piety, the descendants should attend the burial or exhumation of the skeletal remains of their forebears to ensure that the process runs smoothly and no mistake is made.
