Moon Festival

By -

Moon Festival is a traditional festival celebrated by many East and Southeast Asian people.

It is the second-most important holiday after the Chinese New Year with a history dating back 3,000 years when China's emperors worshipped the moon for bountiful harvests.

The festival is held on the 15th day of the 8th month of the Chinese lunisolar calendar with a full moon at night, corresponding to mid-September to early October of the Gregorian calendar.

🌟What will Taiwanese eat at the Moon Festival🌕?

Moon Festival is a grand festival for every Taiwanese. On this day, we will go back to our hometown to stay with our family members and friends and admire the moon together. There are things we will eat during this good time.

1.Moon cake🍪

In the eastern, we have a giving culture. Many people send gifts to others on different holiday to express our gratitude and appreciate. Besides, we will give different gifts on different days. For example, we can use pomelo and moon cake as a gift.


The most common flavor of moon cake is the yolk. It has red bean with egg yolk as stuffing and the crunchy outer. The other flavor is mung bean. After you take a bite, you will find out the mung bean and some pork, or even mushroom. The combination of moon cake in these two flavor may let some foreigners feel strange because it tastes sweet and salty and at the same time.😋😋


2.Pomelo 🍐

The pomelo is a symbolic fruit in October and November. We do not only eat the pulp, but there are still have lots of functions in pomelo’s peel. 

For kids👦👧, we will make a pomelo hat as a toy. To housewives, the peel of pomelo can be dried under the sunlight, and these dried peels can avoid mosquitos coming and make some good smelling.✌✌😁


3.Barbecue👪🎑

The most important part of the Moon Festival is the barbecue. Everyone will stay together and chat with each other shoulder by shoulder. The ingredients you often find out in Taiwanese BBQ parties are below: pork, chicken, beef, steak, seafood, vegetables, bread, sausage, pig blood cake, and so on.🍻🍺🍢




Actually, no matter what we do or eat in this day, the main point is to spend some time to accompany our family, and enjoy the free time under this beautiful moonlight!💖💖💖

印度祭出逾 100 億美元獎勵經費，吸引半導體封裝測試企業前往投資

  印度祭出逾 100 億美元獎勵經費，吸引半導體封裝測試企業前往投資 作者   Atkinson  |  發布日期   2022 年 01 月 19 日 14:30  |  分類   封裝測試  ,  晶片  ,  財經 《日經亞洲評論》報導，印度總理莫迪進一步發展本土半導體製造計畫，最新將提出約 102 億美元獎勵經費，希望吸引全球半導體後段製造廠商封裝測試企業到印度投資。 目前印度約 102 億美元獎勵經費在 2021 年 12 月 15 日獲得國會通過，2022 年元旦開放申請。補助企業範圍除了興建工廠約一半補助費用，還將用於建置清潔水源、充足電力、物流設備的高科技園區，提供企業進駐。藉投資後段封測廠商，逐步培養人才，建立印度半導體製造與設計實力。 這並非印度首次向外商半導體企業招手，希望企業到印度建設投資。過去也嘗試吸引半導體前段晶片製造商到印度設廠投資，卻少有廠商展現興趣。這次印度改變方向，藉半導體製造後端的封裝測試領域下手，未來進入更複雜的半導體前段製造領域前，與全球半導體製造領導廠商多建立關係。 印度電子與資訊部長 Ashwini Vaishnaw 告訴外媒，截至目前反應非常好，所有大廠商及重要廠商都與印度合作夥伴談判，有許多企業願意直接到印度設立據點，預計 2~3 年內就有幾家半導體工廠開始生產，還有一家顯示器工廠建置落成。Vaishnaw 也點名歡迎處理器龍頭英特爾到印度設立晶片生產基地。但英特爾回應沒有印度新計畫宣布。 市場仍有其他看法，認為僅靠獎勵難在印度發展自給自足的半導體產業。目前亞洲半導體晶片製造基地主要分布於日本、台灣、南韓、新加坡、馬來西亞、中國，印度條件相對落後，政府預計將確保半導體用土地、水源、電力與人才列入國家優先發展事項。不過近期常困擾海外企業投資印度的當地勞資關係，也是大家關切的話題，因不久前台系蘋果 iPhone 代工大廠鴻海及緯創等企業，就因勞資問題一度暫停工廠產線。 (首圖來源： Prime Minister’s office (GODL-India) ,  GODL-India , via Wikimedia Commons)

🌟Taiwan is known for its delicious food.🌟   As a Taiwanese, I can introduce some of the famous dishes that are many foreign investors' love .                         No matter which place we are, we can also taste food in Taiwan.😁 1.

You can regard drinking pearl milk tea as a trend for most visitors to Taiwan. As the picture has shown, you can see the black pearls at the bottom.

Besides, in some tea shops, you can even choose the size of the pearl. (I prefer the big pearl, or you can order the remix one)🍷 price:  60-100TWD /152~254 INR💰 2.

Taiwan is a historical country. We have a unique culture from indigenous people, colonizers, and modern Chinese. We are living in a high culturally diverse society, and it also influences our daily life from literature to diet.💗 Before the 16th century , Taiwan had only indigenous people , lived in a different area of Taiwan. They have their customs and languages💯. Until now, 16 ethnic groups in Taiwan have been rectified, but many ethnic groups have not been rectified by the government. (picture from： https://civil.chcg.gov.tw/07other/other01_con.asp?topsn=3779&data_id=16257 ) After the 16th century, Taiwan was ruled by the Netherlands and  Spain   (1624-1662) . 😄The Netherlands colonized in the south of Taiwan, while Spain was in the north. Therefore, there are two different historic structures in the north and south of Taiwan today.     ( Spain- Fort Santo Domingo-In Tamsui, Taipei ) (picture from： https://www.travel.taipei/zh-tw/attraction/details/118 )   ( Netherlands - Z
