About

VIET-KINH

The Viet-Kinh people make up the majority of Vietnam, about 86% of the national population. They live all over the country but are concentrated most in the deltas, midlands, and coastal regions. Many Viet-Kinh also live in urban areas. Though they have a large number of Christian resources available, still only about 1.2% of Viet-Kinh are followers of Christ. Many Viet-Kinh are Buddhist, but like most people in Vietnam, their prevailing religious practice is ancestor worship.
