People's Daily comment: It is necessary to continue to make efforts and persevere in the crackdown on high-value dowries.

Recently, the Central Agricultural Office held an exchange meeting on the comprehensive rectification of high bride prices in rural areas in some provinces. The comprehensive rectification of high bride prices in rural areas is an issue of people's livelihood that the Party Central Committee cares about and the people are concerned about. Therefore, the Office of the Leading Group for Rural Work of the Central Agricultural Office will strengthen deployment and promote the comprehensive rectification of high bride prices in rural areas to be effectively implemented. Governing high bride prices is not the responsibility of a single department or a single place, and it cannot be resolved by a single "thunderbolt" method. It requires comprehensive strategies, targeted measures, and perseverance. It is necessary to encourage local innovation and exploration, set binding norms and advocacy standards based on economic level and local customs, through village regulations and agreements. In addition, it is important to increase public welfare marriage and love services for young people, especially rural marriageable groups, as well as employment security measures. Bride prices are not for profit. Continuing to deeply address the issue of high bride prices is to reduce the burden of marriage, as well as to uphold the integrity of society and add points to a happy life. Actively changing the concept of bride prices and consciously resisting unhealthy practices are necessary to protect the love and "ceremony" of two individuals and two families.
