Just before Christmas break, the rural township of Linpien, on the Pingtung Plain at the mouth of the Linpien river, held its first ever Wax Apple Festival. The festival, in the town's riverside park, was held to promote black pearl wax apples and celebrate the local volunteer spirit.
聖誕假期前，位於屏東平原南部、林邊溪下游出海口的林邊鄉，在河濱公園舉辦了一場「空前」的蓮霧節活動，推銷黑珍珠和林邊人的義工精神。
