Folk beliefs, according to President Tsai, are a vital spiritual pillar for Taiwanese people, a force that offers stability to Taiwanese society, and a valuable cultural treasure.

The Ministry of Culture, according to President Tsai, has maintained to advocate for and promote traditional folk culture. In connection with the annual Monga Qingshan Temple procession, GACC has also arranged "Roar Now Bangkah (萬華大鬧熱)."
