Achang people
The Achang, also known as the Ngac'ang or Maingtha are an ethnic group. They form one of the 56 ethnic groups officially recognized by the People's Republic of China. They also live in Burma. The Achang number 27,700, of whom 27,600 are from Yunnan province, especially Dehong Autonomous Prefecture. The Achang speak a Burmish language called Achang, but there is no indigenous writing system to accompany it. Chinese characters are often used instead. Many Achang also speak the language of the Dai, mainly to make commercial transactions. Speaking a distinct dialect, the Husa Achang living in Longchuan County consider themselves to be distinct and filed an unsuccessful application in the 1950s as a separate nationality. The Husa were more Sinicized than other Achang. For example, Confucian-styled ancestral memorial tablets are common in Husa homes. Most traditional Husa believe in a mixture of Theravada Buddhism and Taoism.
