Who are the San Diu?  The San Diu people group is one of the  larger of Vietnam’s 53 minority groups, with a population of  117,500.  The San Diu have several  other names (San Deo, Man Quan Coc or People Wearing Shorts, Man Vay Xe or People Wearing Split Skirts, Trai Dai or Land Dwelling Trai, and Trai). Probably related to the Han (the majority people group of China), the San Diu have retained much of their traditional culture. 

They are an unreached people group.
