Minority with its own web site!
Much to my surprise,¬†Chinese Yi ethnic minority has its own web site!¬† It’s at:
http://www.yizuren.com/ENGLISH/Index.asp
You can check it out in English, standard Chinese, or Yi.
(While I was in Yunnan this winter vacation I heard people saying that only the Dai minority have their own written language.¬† I knew that wasn’t true since the Naxi have one too.¬† I had no idea that there was any such thing as Yi script, though!)

I can’t get into the YI page.Could it be that they haven’t yet furnished the Yi version or is it just me?I mean could the language identification system on my computer be incompatible with Yi words or sth?
