channel59/Poverty in Thailand, learning life the hard way.

Clothes hanging out to dry by the polluted river. During heavy rain the water rises above this level and almost all the way into the houses.

On the banks of a polluted river, in poorly-built houses, live more than a hundred people from the Lahu tribe. They live in a slum in Chiang Mai, Thailand, away from the Lahu people’s original way of life. Usually, the Lahu people get their resources from the forest. The slum has been there for decades.
