Those old linen fabrics awakened in me the desire to preserve a traditional craft that was gradually fading away. Bringing Hmong culture to the worldAfter initial success, De began contacting shops in Thailand and Japan, wrote emails in English to introduce her products, and even personally carried linen fabrics abroad to seek partners and tell the story of Hmong linen in foreign lands. She has become a young representative of a new Hmong generation, appearing at many domestic and international forums. “I will build a cultural space right at the workshop, turning it into a ‘living museum’ of Hmong linen, while regularly organizing workshops and experiential tours. The goal over the next two years is to make Hemp Hmong Vietnam the largest linen fiber supplier in the country, and more importantly, to help young people in the village see linen weaving as a source of pride and a sustainable livelihood,” De said.
