VTV.vn - The Cham Bani and Islamic Cham communities in Ninh Thuan province, began their traditional month of Ramuwan on Wednesday.

As COVID-19 still poses the risk of community infection, Cham people have opted for home celebrations instead of communal religious rituals, in compliance with social distancing measures that isolate households from each other.

Văn Lâm 3, a village that recently completed 28 days of quarantine after two coronavirus cases were detected there, has encouraged residents to celebrate Ramuwan in line with the Prime Minister's Directive No. 16 on epidemic prevention and control.

Ninh Thuan's Cham community in general will neither visit graveyards nor host vegetarian meals in their pagodas or mosques, and won't invite guests into their home either.
