Some locations from our drive with Wilbert

Dear Friends, 

We would like to share with you some of the pictures taken on one of our first drives around the Fang-area in Northern Thailand. 

As said before, with our new school project, we are hoping to serve more Burmese refugees who are falling through the net of education. 

The day these pictures were taken we drove more than 140km across Northwestern Thailand, roaming the area for a suitable place for a new school. Wilbert, who knows every spot and every rock in the area took us to some of the most remote villages around. However, many of the villages we visited were Lahu Hilltribe villages as opposed to Shan villages. Since the Lahu villages are already more integrated into the community and education is often provided for them by the government, we decided to concentrate our efforts exclusively on the Shan people. 

However, I'd also like to notice that we saw a few locations, which, in the future could be a good fit to build an evening school, where the Lahu people can improve their Thai in order to better understand the lessons in public school. 

As of today, we are working with Kwan Muang (intoduced in an earlier post), with Fred as well as with the current teacher of the DayLight School, Lan Mao, in our efforts to identify a location among the orange plantations where we can get as many Shan-kids as possible into school. 

We will k
