Bai Choi folksongs proposed for UNESCO recognition
The Viet Nam Institute of Culture and Arts is preparing to submit the bai choi folksongs to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), for recognition as an intangible cultural heritage in the world in need of urgent protection.
The news was made public on February 6 at a meeting with Danang authorities to collect researches and analysis data and seek ways to preserve and restore all existing documents on bai choi folksongs.

Danang one of eight South Central Costal provinces are responsible for collecting data for the Institute to compose dossier for submission to the UNESCO.  

Bai choi singing is a traditional art form that originated in the South-central region of Việt Nam and is often practiced by the people of this area during Lunar New Year Festival.

Although most of the singers were amateurs, the lyrics of the songs were self-motivating. All the bai choi folksongs have been preserved until today.
