Nguyen Van No, Deputy Head of the Gia Lai Province's Committee for Religious Affairs, said, “Up to now, Gia Lai province has 279 points which have registered for concentrated religious activities under the Law on Religious Beliefs. Only 41 points are unregistered because the followers are too few, they practice their religions at home and do not feel the need to register for religious activities."

"In Gia Lai province, all religions are equal before law and the needs of all religions are met equally,” said Mr. No.
