The Cham are an ethnic group in Southeast Asia. They inhabit the area between Kampong Cham Province in Cambodia and the Phan Rang-Thap Cham, Phan Thiết, Ho Chi Minh City and An Giang areas in central Vietnam. An estimated 4,000 Cham also live in Thailand; many of them have moved south to Pattani, Narathiwat, Yala, and Songkhla provinces for work. The Cham form the center of Muslim communities in Cambodia and Vietnam.[3]
