Tribulations in
Tha Madua
Dear Mooknadda,":...I remember our conversations in Bangkok, when you said that volunteers were not going into the villagers' houses, villagers were not approaching volunteers, and that some volunteers were unhappy there. I can safely say that I have not found this to be the case." More comments from Allison Crang and other volunteers...
Mekong
River: Southeast Asia's last tourism frontier
"One breakthrough tourism project is the
Highway 9 - the road linking Thailand, Laos and Vietnam across a new bridge
joining Thailand's Mukdahan province with Laos's Savannakhet province.
Tourist operators are eyeing the possibility of connecting river trips
to cultural heritage sites such as Luang Prabang, Angkor and the temples
of Pagan in Myanmar." - Patrick Cusick
