Eighty teenagers from the province’s Muong Khuong District will be trained by elderly artisans from the local community on how to play the group’s folk games.

The class has been organised by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in cooperation with the provincial department of culture, following the government’s project to preserve and develop the traditional ethnic cultures by 2020.

The results of the class will be reviewed ahead of preparations for the next class on intangible heritage of other groups in the country.
