To: United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights


The subject responds back to Vietnam Represented to the Human Right Council and inserted in a public database.


According to the Vietnamese government's report to the Rapporteur and to the United Nation High commissioner for Human Right on June 20, 2020. The International Dega Church organization does not accept that the Vietnamese call the Dega minority “Vietnamese citizens.” We are completely different from Vietnamese people. The Central Highland is our Dega Country.

 

According to the French Federal Government:

Two States were separated state in 1946:

In 1946, two States were created: The An Nam State for the Vietnamese people, and Montagnard State for the Dega people.

 

On May 27, 1946, the Dega State was officially recognized when an ordinance was signed by Mr' D'argenlieu, a representative of the French Federal government in Indochina. This area, located in Southeast Asia, was called the Dega land, Dega country.


The Dega people came from The Tower of Babel. The Lord said they are one people with one language, they live together. Three boats left The Tower of Babel together, one boat stopped in Malaysia, one boat stopped in the Philippines and a Dega boat stopped at Central Highlands. The name of the city where the boat stopped at was named Kam Mran. Kam Mran was renamed by the Vietnamese and became Cam Ranh. Cam Ranh is also known as the port of Dega.

 

The Dega people in Central Highland before Jesus Christ was born until today we are living there in the same location.

We are completely different from Vietnamese people, from the habits, culture, and social status and languages, our Dega languages Vietnamese has been simulated, our new generation unable to speak or learn our own languages.

 

The Central Highland is Dega Country, a separate part of Vietnam. The Vietnamese people were coming from The Mongolia (mongco); they never upon our arrival in the Central Highland. The Vietnamese occupation of Dega country. Vietnam used Civil War and genocide against the Dega people to steal Dega Country and force our territory to become part of Vietnam.

 

During the French federal period, there was a population of over 3.5 million Dega people and now there is only a population of 200,000 Dega people. Where did the other 3.3 million Dega people go? What is happening to these people? Where are they? We did not go to war with anybody. The only thing we know is that the Vietnamese killed all of my Dega people there in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. According to the World Report, the world population is increasing by 35 percent every single year, but we Dega people are not growing at all. Why? The Vietnamese government forces our women to be sterilized and bribe them doing so. Our men are also being arrested and being jailed for no reason from sentences around 1 to 18 years. Almost none of our Dega men ever come back home. The International Dega Church organization tells you the truth as to what is happening to the Dega Montagnards from 1960 to the year 2020. The Vietnamese still continue to kill Dega people by poisoning. Now the Vietnamese government uses our Dega people against our own people. By bribing them with big amounts of money to work for Vietnam and against our own people. The Vietnamese use them to force them to poison our Dega people in the United States and in Central Highlands.

 

The International Dega Church organization urges the United Nations please to open your eyes and hearts to protect the Dega people.

 

We need our own government to protect us from Vietnamese. Only under the umbrella of the United States or the United Nations. We no longer need Vietnamese around us.

Set our Dega Montagnards free and give us freedom and peace for ourselves.

 

Thank you so much. May God bless you.

 

Sincerely,

 

Y-Duen Buondap.
