[edit] Cao Dai Numbers Are Wrong

Sorry, but there are not 7 to 8 million followers of Cao Dai. The other numbers I have seen say between 1% and 3% follow Cao Dai, which puts it at maybe 3 million, maximum. Cao Dai is considered a cult by many vietnamese. And there are certainly not more Cai Dai followers than Catholic followers in Vietnam.

[edit] Hoa population

How come Chinese accounted for 1% population of Vietnam can be considered as second largest minority group?? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 132.170.50.180 (talk) 03:57, 10 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] The Muslim population was wrong

In the Vietnam government's census of 2005.The Muslim population is only under 70 thousand people,67000 to 68000 exactly (80-85% is Cham people,the remains is the South Asian descent people).Almost South Asian Muslims have converted to Buddhists (nearly 90%) and a little Hindus! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 58.186.225.164 (talk) 06:31, 15 May 2007 (UTC).
