Abstract: The 53 ethnic minority groups in Vietnam mainly reside in the midland, mountainous and border regions - areas of strategic importance in terms of economics, national defense, security and ecological environment.

Based on practical evidence, this article contributes to refuting the distorted claims that “racial discrimination” exists in Vietnam, affirming that Vietnam’s ethnic policy aims at genuine equality, strengthening national unity and promoting sustainable national developmen.
