The Chinese community of Confucian descent, along with other ethnic groups, prepares to take part in a duck catching competition during the Peh Cun festival celebration on the banks of the Cisadane River in Tangerang City, Indonesia, on May 31, 2025. Peh Cun is a tradition of the Chinese community in Indonesia that celebrates the fifth day of the fifth month in the Chinese calendar as a form of respect for an important figure named Qu Yuan, a statesman and writer from the Chu Dynasty who dies on that date. The Peh Cun tradition is also a form of acculturation of Chinese and Indonesian cultures and is part of Indonesia's diversity.
