Along with the process of integration and development, traditional cultural identities of the Muong ethnic community in general, and Muong ethnic people in Tan Lac district in particular, are at risk of falling into oblivion. Therefore, many clubs have been established in the locality to preserve and promote the beauty of the ethnic group’s cultural identities.
Tan Lac district preserves Muong ethnic group’s cultural identities.
Bui Thi Luyen, head of Muong people’s cultural preservation and
promotion centre in Man Duc township's Muon Phoi residential area, said
previously in daily life and holidays, Muong ethnic people wore traditional
costumes and played gongs around their village with the aim of praying for a
peaceful year, good luck and a bumper crop. However, in modern life,
traditional costumes or gongs are no longer commonly used.
Muong people’s costumes have been adjusted to suit modern fashion trends.
Instead of using brocade fabric with manual embroidery, their costumes have
been made by synthetic fabrics with industrial print patterns. Belts were also
replaced by ready-made items. Not only costumes, the preservation of language
is also a big concern.
Bui Minh Hong, head of the Culture and Information Department of Tan Lac
district, said that currently, many clubs have been established in the district
such as Mo Muong club, and other clubs to preserve Muong language and costumes.
The district has encouraged its localities to continue to replicate the club
model to preserve the language and costume of the Muong people.
