Mid-Autumn Festival or Harvest Festival is celebrated worldwide on the 15th. day of eight month according to the Gregorian Calender by the Chinese and Vietnamese. It's the same cultural celebration as Ponggal, Gawai, Keamatan, Maras Taun (celebrated by the Malays in Belitung Island, Indonesia) Festival.
A folklore, this festival is a way of saying appreciation for the year bountiful harvest. For providing their families foods on the table. In a cultural way, it teach us how we should appreciate with what we have today instead of whining, grumbling, moaning, bellyaching and not by equating with what other people have.
Showing our appreciations by saying Thank You and not Assimilating The Unfortunate With Ignominious.
