ustoms of the refugees
• It has been noted that
some refugees are
already living with local
families. Since more are
coming to our area
through the sponsorship
of individuals, churches
and the government, it is
the intent of these articles
to provide some
background information
about refugees from
various Southeast Asian
.countr'es. While most of
-the given cultural
practices will refer.
specifically to the people
of Vietnam from where
the majority of refugees
will come, much of the
information c.an be
ascribed to all Asian
refugees since many of
the customs will be
similar.
Language
Depending on the
ethnic group the refugees
will speak Vietnamese or
Chinese (Mandarin or
Cantonese), Hmong
(tribal language, also
called Meo in Laos), Lao
of'Cambodian.

Vietnam's inhabitants
identify themselves as
Buddhists, they have
been equally influenced
by the teachings of the
moral philosopher
Confucius and his
followers. Catholicism
was introduced in the 16th
century and accounts for
about 10 percent of the
South Vietnamese
population.
The Vietnamese
believe in numerous
types of spirits and un-
seen force.s not only
among the working class
but often the highly
educated as well. Even
though a Vietnamese has
adopted a • western
religion he may still
believe in the existence
and power of spirits.
Marriage
Marriage in Vietnam is
Often viewed as a social
contract. In selecting a
wife the groom's family
will be interested in the
girl's character, her
ability to perform
household tasks and the
social reputation and
medical history of her
family. The girl's family
will be concerned with
the groom's character
and family background.
South Vietnamese law
requires civil marriage
for all as well as the
religious ceremony.
Understanding and
tolerance will help them
adjust in our com-
munities more readily.
