Hello Shani

With South Africa being a country with a lot of cultures – I can’t speak for everyone.

I know the ANC does get together on this day and have speeches etc.

Afrikaans people have a BBQ on the day.

Some people do nothing – just another public holiday.

But we don't have a special festival or something like that. Not that i am aware of.

It actually had me scratching my head as to where it came from. Fortunately Wikipedia to the rescue.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritag...(South_Africa).

I understood what's you say .
In China also like this. Different place people has different celebration. Except spring festival.

Thanks a lot!
