By now, a lot of ethnic minority policies have been implemented in Vietnam (until 2011 there are about 182 policies relating to ethnic minorities).

In the Constitution in 1981 and 1982 as well as the Revised Constitution in 2014, this was elucidated as below: “All the ethnicities are equal and unite with, respect and assist one another for mutual development; all acts of discrimination against and division of the ethnicities are prohibited. Every ethnic group has the right to use its own spoken and written language to preserve its own identity and to promote its fine customs, practices, traditions and culture. The State shall implement a policy of comprehensive development and create the conditions for the minority ethnicities to draw upon/ further their internal strengths and develop together with the country”. Those basic policies are further concretized 72 in many areas involved, including political, socio-economic and cultural.(*) In
