Japanese write “Nengajo” or New year cards to show appreciation for the annual relationship. Writhing cards is a little bit hassle. First we need to buy cards at post office. Second we need to print the cards and put some pictures in it. Lastly we need to write a message for many cards.
I consider New year cards change to e-mails because of recently e-mails’ developing. I heard there have been affluent e-cards such as Microsoft publishing.
However this Japanese traditional custom still continues. I don’t know the reason but my grand parents and relatives are looking forward to exchange cards every year. Traditional cards bring some impact and people enjoys to look in one’s hand.
