Kien Giang Province is located in Southwest Vietnam. It has drawn many ethnic groups to relocate because of its picturesque landscape, which includes curving beaches, numerous hills, and large rice fields. According to documents and antiquities, the Funan Empire emerged in the early first century AD and was Southeast Asia’s first civilization. Nguyen Lang’s book (Full volume) writes: “At that time (at the beginning of the era), India had direct trade relations with the Middle East and indirectly with the countries of the Great Mediterranean. The Roman Empire consumed a lot of gold, silk, spices, Agarwood, cinnamon, pepper, ivory, and jewels. To have enough goods to supply that market, Indian merchants sailed to the Far East. These merchant ships followed the southwest monsoon to Southeast Asia and reached the coasts of Malaysia, Funan, and Giao Chi. The Indian merchants had to stay there until the next year and waited for the northeast monsoon to return to India. During this time, they stayed with the natives, and their living and civilization had a great impact on the local people. Thanks to the presence of Indian merchants, people knew about Indian farming techniques, medicine, and religion. It could be said that the Indian merchants were the first ones who brought Buddhism into our country” [4, p. 25].
