Who they are
The Tangchanghya are an indigenous community living in the hills and forested valleys of South Asia, especially in the Chittagong region. Known for their rich textile crafts and oral traditions, they maintain deep cultural ties to their ancestral land. Although most follow Buddhist teachings blended with traditional rituals, some groups within the community have shown openness to the gospel.
