Rhizome: The meaning of rice

節錄自 prison notebook:

...Yet this is not simply an issue of crowd control. The "good luck rice
or peace rice" is about money but symbolic meanings in Chinese festival
tradition. This is reminiscent of the recent stampede tragedy in
Baghdad. More than 700 Shiites died in a pilgrimage. Something similar
occasionally happens in the Muslim world. What at stake is how to
reform religious practice and institution without uprooting their
tradition. The best way is not to impose strict regulations on them.
Government's restriction on bun-snatching in Cheung Chow is a bad
example. What we need is a series of reformation initiated by religious
people themselves....
