It's still 16兩 in most territories including Japan and Vietnam

https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/斤

Editor: According to Wikipedia:
604.78982 grams in Hong Kong
604.79 grams in Malaysia
604.8 grams in Singapore
600 grams in Taiwan and Thailand
500 grams in mainland China

But I don't think we need to give so much detail, and the present entry is pretty adequate.
It tells you what the weight is in the PRC and also indicates that it could be a different weight in other locales.
Diff:
- 斤 斤 [jin1] /catty/weight equal to 0.5 kg/(Tw) weight equal to 0.6 kg/
# + 斤 斤 [jin1] /catty/(PRC and Malaysia) weight equal to 0.5 kg/(Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore etc) weight equal to 0.6 kg/
+ 斤 斤 [jin1] /catty/weight equal to 0.5 kg (PRC)/(Tw) weight equal to 0.6 kg/
