As you can see, the families living here are living in very poor conditions. There is no running water and no electricity in this village. Water has to be collected from the river 10 minutes walk away. This may seem near but when you need water for many things, walking 10 minutes is a long time. The water then needs to be boiled before it can be used. The result of not boiling the water is illness. As you can see, the villages houses are built of wood are not very strong. This is because they have no money and cannot get hold of any materials. The people have very things like clothes or furniture because they have no money and they a long way from the nearest town. There is a bus but you have to walk kilometers to get to the nearest road,One of the major problem facing the hill tribe children along the mountainous borders of northern Thailand is poverty. There is little money coming to their families and often they cannot afford the expense to purchase important things like Medicine. Living conditions can be somewhat primitive and another problem is lack of firewood for cooking. The trees in many areas are gone so there is little wood for burning. People have to walk further and further away to find wood. We recommend using alternative sources of fuel such as charcoal. Water is also a problem. Some villages do not have a well and pump so the villagers have to walk to the river with containers to fetch water. Wells need to be dug and pumps need to be put in to pump water into some of the villages. Unfortunately, if the pump breaks down, the repairing of the pump takes several days, as an engineer has to come from the nearest town to repair it. We recommend training one person in each village to repair the pumps,Education is another problem area affected by hardship. Many school are very small with only basic equipment. Some do not even have a roof. Children sit on the floor and there is often only one teacher to teach all the children even though They are different ages. There is not enough money for more than one teacher in a village; farming is the occupation. A large problem is that children do not go to school because their parents need help and are forced to let the children help farm the land, collect wood and water, and look after sick family members. Many children do not get enough protein to eat as there are few animals and so the children suffer from malnutrition. Health care is limited as there are no doctors or nurses in the villages and again no one has the means to pay for them,As I said earlier, there is no electricity in this village, so when it is dark, the only light comes from the small fires that the family cooks over. Unfortunately, mu
