DANANG – About 2,000 years ago, the lands of South-east Asia such as Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam were called “Suvarnabhumi”, or “Land of Gold” in Sanskrit.
Ancient Indian traders spread Hinduism and Buddhism, fanning out from Thailand in the north to the Indonesian islands in the south – called “Suvarnadvipa”, meaning “Isles of Gold” – from around the 1st century CE.
