To the Hmong, the idea made sense because they were struggling in the camps, and they had received word that those who resettled in France and the United States were having difficulty adjusting to urban life there. In French Guiana, life would be more similar to conditions in Laos, with the potential for self-sufficiency and an opportunity to farm. The French government agreed to Father Bertrais’ suggestion, giving the Hmong two years to achieve selfsufficiency(Martin, 1992). 在法圭亚那苗族Yves Bertrais的法国神父来到老挝，向当地的苗族传教。在传教多年后的1975年，Yves Bertrais神父向法国政府建议，可以让住在泰国难民营里的苗族在法圭亚那(Martin, 1992)。对于正处于水深火热的苗族难民来说，法圭亚那Bertrais神父的提议，并给这些难民两年时间安顿自立(Martin, 1992)。 In that time, the Comité Nationale d’Entraide (Committee of National Mutual Aid)provided finances to cover installation of water, gas, and electricity infrastructure for the Hmong in Cacao (Géraud, 1997). Cacao was operated as a metropolitan rescue center, with daily compensation of 40 francs per person. The Hmong pooled these resources together to buy agricultural equipment in the hopes of one day achieving self-sufficiency and independence. The approximately 2,100 Hmong of French Guiana now live in rural, farming communities where they reside largely among themselves in villages that are 90-100% Hmong. 在这两年当中，法国援救委员会给在Cacao的苗族难民提供资金，用于水、气、电等基础设施建设。Cacao成了当时的援救中心，每人每天可领40法郎的救助金。为了能早一天实现自给自立，苗族们把这些钱汇集起来置办农业机具。有大约2100名苗族住在法属圭亚那的农村、农场地区。他们分散居住在相邻的多个村庄，在这些村庄，苗族占到了百分之九十以上，甚至百分之百。 Javouhey (1,100residents) is the largest of the Hmong villages, followed by Cacao (900), Regina (80), Saül (40), and Iracabou (40) (Figure 1). The majority of families participate in market farming, selling their produce in the cities of
