What should I do to be frugal?

The first is to establish the concept of frugal dining. Thrift is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, the foundation of starting a business, establishing a family and starting a business, and the source of power for China producers to govern and rejuvenate the country. Frugal dining and advocating civilized action at the table mean that we should eat moderately, scientifically and reasonably under any conditions and circumstances. Now people's living standards are getting higher and higher, and most people are not short of food, clothing or money. But having money doesn't mean that you can abandon the traditional virtue of thrift, and you can spend lavishly on food consumption. To establish the concept of frugal dining is to form the habit of civilized dining, abandon the extravagant and wasteful habits such as vanity consumption, comparison consumption and showing off wealth consumption, order appropriate dishes and consume moderately, and form a new fashion of civilized dining that is ashamed of waste and proud of saving.

The second is to establish the concept of cherishing public resources. China is a country rich in resources, but it is also a country with poor per capita resources. Therefore, building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society is our goal. In fact, the food and daily necessities we consume every day need a lot of resources to produce. To this end, consumers should have the consciousness of cherishing food resources in food consumption, eat as much as possible, and it is best not to leave any more, pay attention to scientific packaging and avoid waste; For official receptions and business banquets, the dining standards should be reasonably arranged, and the consumption level should not be arbitrarily raised to prevent high-end consumption. Leading cadres at all levels should take the lead in cherishing public resources and advocating civilized dining.

The third is to establish the concept of cherishing the fruits of labor. Civilized dining table action is not only a respect for wealth-creating workers and wealth created by workers, but also a respect for consumers' own leadership and wealth created by labor. I can't spend the fruits of my labor just because I have participated in the labor, nor can I think that "the money is my own, and I can spend it how I want." "A porridge and a meal, when thinking is hard-won, it is difficult to save material resources." Only by establishing the concept of cherishing the fruits of labor can we develop a frugal lifestyle.

The fourth is to establish the concept of civilized dining from small things. Civilized dining table action is a mass activity to create spiritual civilization, which starts with the most common food and beverage items of consumers and turns "dining table civilization" from "theory on paper" into daily action. To this end, we can't do nothing because of its goodness. The quality of civilization is accumulated by the little things in daily life, starting with the details of daily actions. Tangshan Convention on Civil Civilization requires us to "advocate science and live a healthy life; Cherish resources and practice economy ",starting from the small matter of civilized dining, over time, the civilized quality of Tangshan will leap to a new level."

The fifth is to establish the concept of civilized new style starting from me. The people are the main body of creating a civilized dining table, and the achievements of creating a civilized dining table are shared by the people. Therefore, every catering enterprise, every employee of catering enterprise, and every consumer have the responsibility and obligation to do their duty in the civilized dining table action, start from themselves, start from now on, actively participate in the civilized dining table action, shake hands with civilization, bid farewell to bad habits, actively create a warm and civilized dining environment, and enjoy the happiness of "frugal and cherish blessings, civilized dining".
