For the first time, the local "folk songs" form was used, referring to songs that are familiar to the people in their daily lives. The melody was combined with elements of taxation knowledge to create lyrics. The "Zhuang Language" members of the "Six Language Tong" volunteer service team sang well-known children's songs with the Zhuang compatriots, creating a strong and joyful atmosphere for the publicity event.

"What deadline is the end of March? What deadline is the end of May? What deadline is the end of June? What deadline is the end of the year?"
In the tax propaganda station established , bursts of cheerful singing came from time to time. Tax cadres are busy distributing brochures and materials to the public, introducing this year's 33rd National Tax Awareness Month theme of "Tax Assistance Development Moves Newly", interpreting recent hot tax preferential policies that the public is concerned about, and reminding taxpayers to pay attention to personal income tax Deadline for the annual settlement of operating income, comprehensive income, and corporate income tax. The public was also invited to compose a "antiphon" on the deadlines for the settlement of the above-mentioned taxes. The tax law knowledge that supported taxation and paid taxes with integrity turned into songs that surrounded the new countryside and floated farther away.
"I never thought that we could use our local dialect and local songs to sing about the tax law. I sang casually and I remembered the lyrics immediately." Aunt Liu, who participated in the chorus, said happily.
It is reported that every year on the third day of the third lunar month, the Zhuang people in Xiaosanjiang Town gather together to celebrate with singing and dancing. Limei and Puzuoli (girls and boys) here are naturally good at singing and dancing. In 2018, Zhuangge was included in the seventh batch of intangible cultural traditional music list of Guangdong Province.
Tax cadres said that this publicity activity was the first time that the public sang the tax law propaganda content with the masses in the form of singing. It not only blended into the local festival atmosphere and quickly shortened the distance with the masses, but also further explored and displayed the traditional culture of Zhuang songs, tax law The content "sounds" into people's hearts and is widely sung, and has received enthusiastic response from the masses.
