The Society for Conservation of Folk Cultural Assets     The society for Conservation of Folk Cultural Assets was organized in 1973 to realize the institute’s activities that have been supported by natural or juridical members. It contributes very much to the aim of the institute that is, to hand down the cultural properties to future generations, and then to back up staff’s studies as well. The fund built by the society helps to carry out research projects throughout the whole country which are subsidized by the government. This means that the institute supports governmental activity related to cultural heritage protection.
