The New Immigrants Training and Development Information Website is a webpage funded by the New Immigrant Development Fund of the Ministry of the Interior (內政部新住民發展基金), which brings news information for new immigrants in Taiwan. The Mid-Autumn Festival is celebrated all over Asia, including Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Vietnam, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia, and by overseas Chinese in Malaysia. Festival customs in various places have their own characteristics. In Taiwan, it is the local custom to reunite with family members and enjoy barbecue, moon cakes and grapefruits while admiring the full moon. In Southeast Asia, such as in Vietnam, the holiday is their children’s festival.
