"They look up to their culture and have a very positive attitude towards their language. Language proficiency is pretty impressive even in the case of bilingual or multilingual Juangs though it is higher among the older generation. The medium of education is Oriya though the government has prepared a few Juang primers for children and older people." (pp. 508-509)
