What are the reasons for China's long-term neglect of physical education?

The reason why sports have been neglected for a long time in China is that. In our education department, the state only attaches importance to the rule of virtue. Pay more attention to intellectual education. Not so concerned about the health of the whole people. So I don't pay attention to sports. Sports were ok 20 years ago. In recent 10 years, sports countries have paid less attention to it. But people's living standards have improved. People themselves began to pay attention to the relationship between physical health and physical exercise. Therefore, NGOs exercise more.
