legal sanctions

only in this way can we abide by the contents of the Chinese people's national flag law. We finally formulated the national flag law in order to safeguard the dignity of the national flag, enhance citizens' national concept and carry forward the spirit of patriotism. The draft amendment to the National Flag Law clearly states that "the national flag shall not be hung upside down or used in other ways that are detrimental to the dignity of the national flag. The national flag shall not be discarded at will. After the large-scale mass activities, the organizers of the activities shall properly dispose of all kinds of national flags used at the event site.

the national flag is the embodiment of a country, and hanging it upside down is equivalent to resisting the national spirit, which is a matter of discrediting the country, and damaging the national flag is even more serious. It fully shows that it is a bad behavior to disrespect the national flag and the spirit of the country.

In China, we need to strengthen publicity on the use of the national flag and national emblem, because many people don't know, or don't know, that it is against the law to damage the national flag.
