Culture is evolving continually, anyway, whether the writing system changes, or not.
chinese characters have very important values in the culture, and there is so much history behind it, i don't like simplified chinese either, they said it helps the people to learn the language quicker, apparently that doesn't help at all, as China has millions of illiterate people. if they want everyone in the country to be able to read and write chinese, they should do it by putting people in school, not by changing the writing system.
the chinese government has already destroyed many historical buildings, they are westernizing the country, as a chinese person i really hate that to happen
