With the desire to learn to read and write their ethnic language, recently, Thai women in Yen Hoa commune, the mountainous district of Tuong Duong have been going to the village cultural house every day to learn to read and write.

bna _ 1 — Lai Pao script was created by the Thai people living along the Nam Non River. Over the years, this script has been forgotten and is at risk of being lost. However, over the years, with the attention of all levels and sectors, those who love Lai Pao script have been diligently researching, collecting and passing it on to future generations. With the desire to learn to read and write their ethnic script, despite their old age and weak health, for more than a month now, the elderly people of Thai Xieng Lip village, Yen Hoa commune have regularly gone together twice a day (morning and evening) to learn their ethnic script.
