I was there just before the Pandemic in 2019, so sad for the retailers, wish everything is back to normal soon. Thank you so much for sharing!

My wife and I had been there in 2004 and that Hmong village was still quite small at the time. When we went up to the temple on the mountain we took the elevator and when on our way down we took the steps. It was a very nice temple and while we were walking around we saw 5 kids ages ranging from a few months old to 5 or 6 years old knowing that they were Hmong kids standing up there begging tourists for some money, and they were quite surprised when we spoke Hmong to them. They said they were kids at the Hmong village and were quite happy when we gave them some money. Thank you for sharing.

I just wonder does Mr vang has family’s or not had never seen family together somewhere either in America or any other country’s when travel because all over the place that he travels it was beautiful but no one with him we just want to see together as a couples so will have more fund sorry for asking? Thank you fore sharing.

[@suabhmong]

Many online people asking the same question and I have the same answer to everyone who is online. Due to political reason, I do not want to showcase my private life but I am a family man and everyone surrounding me know me well on that aspect. If you would like to know more about me, contact me privately or get to know me more. Thank you for your inquiry.

Nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there. My husband and several other Hmong couples went there in 2019, we even were invited to go inside theirs houses, ate their foods but live over there are different so can't live there.

Beware of SCAM: I don’t want to say bad things about our Hmong people, but I just wanted to warn you that when you go to this Hmong village and any other places in Thailand, do NOT accept any offer from anybody that tries to sell you things. My family and I went to visit this Hmong village and the Hmong villagers were trying to sell Diamonds to us and they said those were real diamonds they bought from Burma. My family felt sympathy because they were Hmong so we wanted to help them. I spent over $500 and my brother spent over $400 buying their diamonds. Later, we found out it was FAKE diamonds. They don’t love you. Be careful and don’t let anybody scam you.

[@suabhmong]

No matter where you go, you need to trust yourself and just by being your self

[@nraughmoobyaj8088]

@@suabhmong That’s true. However, coming to America for so long and we dearly missed our Hmong people back in Thailand and Laos, and we honestly wanted to help them out, but some Hmong there aren’t like you and me. Even after being scammed, we still gave free money and other donations to the Hmong people in Thailand and Laos.

Many of the wood homes need the China style reinnervation and rebuild to attract more tourism. Just imagine at nigh light the whole village and by day flowers blooms over the village. If they made made me the person in charge there I would request the Thai government to do just that.😌

Easy to say but hard to do...
