It is true that the older generation, in most of the cases, adheres to many traditional values, belief and old way of thinking and many of these are not suitable to make the youngsters ready to take challenges in this modern era. There are still some values and traditions that are useful and older generation should pass those values to the young people.

However, I contend that core traditional principles such as family respect and diligence remain indispensable.
