I thought of recommending you to visit this place in northern Thailand a few weeks ago and didn’t know you have been there before and you are there now, great and interesting content, Ken.👍 The Chinese signboard at hotel reception is about shooting range for tourists. Hope you enjoy your stay there. Viel Spass!😃

Please note: "Mandarin" is a Western term for a fruit, but this word means nothing in Chinese language! You can simply say: Putonghua (lingua franca of China) or Zhongguohua (national language of China)!

The troops who failed in the Chinese civil war did not fled to Thailand at first. Instead they fled to northern Myanmar. The Nationalist Party who lost the civil war and fled to Taiwan wanted them to be a power to fight back to the mainland, so they informed the troops to stay there and keep harassing China Mainland's frontier. However, in order to get the source of income, the troops started to trade drugs, which caused severe problems which are still affecting today. The Myanmar government couldn't stand such a power occupying their own country, so they asked and cooperated with the People's Liberation Army to battle with them again and drove them to the boarder between Myanmar and Thailand. Due to the uprising internation pressure, the Nationalist party eventually managed to bring a part of soldiers and relatives to Taiwan, but the rest ones were still left in Thailand. For the purpose to get the nationality, they chose to fight with the Thai communists. After years past, these people all put down their weapons, so China Mainland just simply consider them as normal Thailanders.

Thanks for the history. Exactly the same I had read about. Western media used this part of the history to smear China. Time has changed and they probably haven't been here recently. It looks more like Maco financed by Chinese money and tourist. Just like Vegas. It has a dark and gangster past. Western media is still living in the dark ages. Don't know their motives. But, seeing is believing.

Under previous king patronage, they turned to tea plants growing about 1990. There is now a speed train from southern China to Thailand via Laos....and SRT opened the Ventiane-Bangkok line this year (2024).

Ken, I like your travel videos more and more. The place you are in is the urban tribe where the descendants of the Chinese Expeditionary Force who participated in the Second World War against Japanese fascism live. I am very happy to see your video. The current flag of the Republic of China is the flag used in Taiwan, China. This flag can also be seen in the Mainland China Museum. The name of the flag is: (Sunny Day, White Sun, Full of Red Earth). You can really show the pictures you took in your video. I am looking forward to seeing the relevant videos in the museum. In recent years, more and more mainland Chinese citizens have gone there to look for relatives/visit. This is real history. I am very happy to directly understand their work and life status through your travel video. It's very cool! I hope your fans will break through 500,000 soon, love from Chinese fans❤️

The pronunciation of “90” in Thai is exactly the same as in Cantonese.😂 The road signs in Chinese indicate the Chinese Museum and Tomb of a Famous Chinese General who brought the soldiers to Northern Thailand, as there are occasionally some Chinese or Taiwanese tourists visiting this area, Chinese road signs are helpful for them to find the way. FYI, the ROC government abandoned these soldiers after it fled to Taiwan. Life was tough at that time, the soldiers had no choice but growing opium to survive. Decades later the ROC government in Taiwan remembered these brave soldiers and brought their children to Taiwan for studies and allow some of them settle down in Taiwan, they have very close relationship with Taiwan and many Chinese language teachers in the village are from Taiwan. Nowadays life is much better, other than tea plantations they also build restaurants and hotels to make a living.
@somsaksompong689

Dear Ken. Sometimes when you hear Chinese in Thailand it can be other dialects than Mandarin. Many Thai-Chinese speak languages like Teochew, Hakka, Hokkien, Hainanese etc. They usually also speak Mandarin because some of them had a Chinese school education or have business with China. Thailand and China have had cultural, commercial and other relations over the centuries. Thailand has a strong identity that is unique, and some different influences pay homage to their welcoming land of the Free. Kind regards from Switzerland.

Please note: "Mandarin" is a Western term for a fruit, but this word means nothing in Chinese language! You can simply say: Putonghua (lingua franca of China) or Zhongguohua (national language of China)!

“Mandarin”其实是葡萄牙语的“官话”,这其实是对“普通话”最佳的翻译。

@@wang-x7b No!你错了!官话包括一系列不同的汉语北方系方言,不等于普通话(现代标准汉语/中国国家通用语言)!除了普通话作为“标准官话”,所谓的官话还包括东北官话、兰银官话、中原官话、江淮官话、西南官话等很多不同的分支方言!请你不要混淆官话与普通话!

​@@Kawah_Kawah差不多的了😅管好自己别强迫别人。真这么较真那中文要改的更多了,你先让中国人管荷兰人改口叫尼德兰人再说😅这种词汇流变造成的词意偏差指代偏差数不胜数,中文里的各种外来词汇也一大堆错译,反而对着外国佬吹毛求疵。你要求英语念中文词汇,那你有没有考虑过英语字母和拼音字母发音不一样呢?如果你没法给出更符合英语发音的汉语词罗马化拼写方式,那就闭嘴,别指手画脚,己所不欲勿施于人😊

Thanks Ken, good video, a bit more about the Chiang Kai Chek and the nationalists movement in 1995 would have been good. Many of the Tai living in southern Yunnan moved to Chiang Rai too, some of them members of the former royal family of the Tai Leu who still number around a million people in southern Yunnan. I look forward to Cambodia.

About the temples: they are financed by donations from regular people. Maybe sometimes somebody rich will donate but mainly, its the people because they love Buddha
