TRADITIONAL beliefs, including Feng Shui and Mazu, are being discussed as to whether they are intangible cultural heritages, a culture official said yesterday.
"Moves to include or exclude China's folk beliefs as government-recognized ICH must be thoroughly discussed," said Deputy Culture Minister Wang Wenzhang.
He made the comment responding to whether Feng Shui would be nominated for the UNESCO Representative List of ICH at a news conference in Beijing.
Wang said the government was seeking expert advice, but ancient beliefs such as Feng Shui required much research and deliberation.
Wang said protection of folk beliefs were being considered in the drafting of a law aimed to protect the country's ICH. China has the largest items on the UNESCO ICH list.
