Kon Tum is the largest plateau on the Central Highlands. It is more than 800 metres above sea level. The majority of the local inhabitants are made up of the Ba Na, one of several ethnic minority groups in the Central Highlands. The second largest group is the Kinh which is followed by the Gia Rai people. Kon Tum was an administrative centre of the French colonialists who ruled the Central Highlands as early as the 19th century. Some French missionaries arrived in Kon Tum as early as 1651. They came in a greater number in 1838 to pave the way for the French troops to invade the country. To oppress insurrections repeatedly launched by the Vietnamese people, the French built a big prison in Kon Tum where many Vietnamese revolutionaries were jailed. Vietnamese soldiers in the French army were dispatched to guard the prison and a severe prison regime was applied there. The forming of the highway 19 that runs through Central Highlands to the lowland areas to the east were the result of flesh and blood of prisoners from the Kon Tum prison. The Ba Na people is the first among the ethnic minority groups in Central Highlands to have learnt how to use their own written language and how to use buffaloes and cows to plough their fields. According to Ba Na language, Kon means Village and Tum means Pond or Lake. Ba Na Kon Tum signifies Ba Na village which has many ponds and lakes. However, their lifestyle remains very primitive. They just pestle a small amount of rice sufficient to feed the whole family in a day and fetch enough water to use in a day. The Ba Na people are nationally famous for their hunting skills. Visitors to any house can see several wooden bows and pots of arrows on the wall. Like any other ethnic minority peoples on the Central Highlands, Ba Na people always keep a big fire in the middle of their houses. Most of the male Ba Na people have scars on their chest. These are self-inflicted wounds. The man inflicts himself by piercing the burning end of a timber into his chest or cutting himself with a sharp knife when a family member is dead. That is to demonstrate his pains over the deceased. In addition, there is a beautiful water fall named Yaly in Po Co river. There is a new hydro-elctric plant at the Yaly water fall. It has a design capacity of 673kW.
