    Impressive collection! The begonias of Vietnam are on a different level! My favorite though was Pavonina from Malaysia. Lanyu is actually the only island in Taiwan where an Austronesian language belonging to the Malayo-Polynesian branch is spoken. The Austronesian languages spoken in the main island of Vietnam are classified in the Formosan branch. The native inhabitants of Lanyu are very closely related to the Ivatan tribe of the Batanes Islands in the Philippines.
