BEIJING, Sept. 10 (Xinhuanet) -- A survey by Beijing Youth Daily shows 67.1
percent of Beijingers have changed their ways of Moon Festival greetings to
their friends and clients by sending short messages, China Daily reports
Wednesday.
They believe sending a short message is more convenient than delivering
moon cakes, a traditional Chinese pastry dedicated especially to the festival.
Aug. 15 on the Chinese lunar calendar, or Sept. 11 this year, is a family
reunion day, when Chinese family members would happily get together eating moon
cakes in the bright moon light.
The festival has also become a day when people would pay best regards to
friends, relatives and clients. Enditem
