[Religious Intellignece] 26 Nov 2008--The Compass Direct News agency is reporting that in violation of Vietnam’s new religion policy, authorities in Lao Cai Province in Vietnam’s far north are pressuring new Christians among the Hmong minority to recant their faith and to re-establish ancestral altars, according to area church leaders.

Local authorities had warned that on Sunday (Nov. 23) they were planning to come in force to Ban Gia Commune and Lu Siu Tung village, Bac Ha district, where the Christians reside, but they did not say what they would do.
