Kỳ cuối: Viết tiếp khát vọng của người Ơ Đu

Final episode: Continuing the aspirations of the O Du people

When they were first brought to live in a separate village, the economic life of the O Du people was considered the most difficult among the ethnic minority communities in Western Nghe An, while their unique cultural features had almost been lost.

Part 1: Exploring the Nam Non region

The O Du people currently have only about 100 households, mainly living in Vang Mon village (Nga My commune). Few people know that they have a proud past. Their ancestors are said to be the first people to reclaim the land on both sides of the Nam Non River - the upper source of the Lam River.
Thai script in Nghe An, the thunder welcoming ceremony of the O Du people and the art of sacrificial drums in Yen Thanh are recognized as national intangible cultural heritage.

Recently, the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism signed a Decision on announcing the list of national intangible cultural heritages. Nghe An has 3 more heritages included in this list.
