They ruined tourism now the Hill Tribes are disappearing in far Northern Laos..
WILD LAOS | The Hor - Phongsali Hill Tribes Pt2
We continue east away from Phongsali into the deep mountains and jungle towards the Vietnam border where some of the most isolated hill tribes in Laos can be found. It is here that we find the Hor hill tribe. A small ethnic group which can only be found high in the mountains here in Laos. 2 Hor villages we visit, seeing how they live and help out while we are there. Even up here so far away from anybody the people are still very friendly.. wanting us to sit, drink tea and show us their home.

Happy tears watching this one

[@jordiking2481]

Those girls reactions to Julie's dresses teared this old fisherman's eyes up.... beautiful scenery...Todd you and Nee Nee are Laos best ambassadors....

[@_Alfa.Bravo_]

Yes, 8:12 to 10:02 ... wish you so much good Karma, Todd. Your gifts were better than their birthdays I guess. So many strong happy smiles. Thanks for your generosity and good heart !!!!!

[@wiccanfpv]

I have never cried so much in my life, but not what you think. A flood of love for these people, I'm the happiest I ever been here, words can't describe, and when camera isn't rolling these people really open up. That's why I stopped my channel. God has saved me coming here, my heart will never leave these people.

[@beelao5755]

God blessed you and your wife. You have a good heart.

Love the power of KZbin! Bringing great content creators and talented, generous people together.

[@mtnmandeluxe5429]

Howdy Todd,,👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 unlike people that are used to NCO's and other charities passing out everything they need,,those people get demanding and expect stuff. These people,,even the little kids were humble and immensely appreciative. I was especially struck by the same girl you were,,I think the last you passed kanom to. She politely stood to the side to let all the younger ones get theirs,,,then she said thank you,,it was even English wasnt it? If I ever make it,,I wanna buy 5000 chocolate bars to pass out. 🤠🎩👑🤠🎩👑

[@PedroThai]

great stuff todd lad. I can see how happy and contented you are in Loas doing what u love, cheers mate

[@BrianMax]

That must be such a good feeling, to give the little girls dresses and make them smile like that.

[@waynepickering129]

Just wonderful

[@_Alfa.Bravo_]

I guess my neighbores consider me as beeing poor. Thank you very much for making me feel so rich, after having seen your film ...

[@juans3728]

Peace to you Todd and Neenee. Wonderful things you both are doing.

[@parkhilton]

Good work mate, I'm not crying

[@_Alfa.Bravo_]

I am

[@baldysanyokosuka5592]

I recently ran across your channel and wish that I'd found it sooner. Every child and adult in first world nations should see your work and the simplicity of the Laotian tribe people. No cell phones, no laptops and the kids think that they've died and gone to Buddha heaven when the receive a dress, shirt, book or even an ordinary candy bar. Their spirit and love of life shows through with every smile. How soon the world forgot the amount of death and destruction that the Laotian people experienced during the Vietnam War. . Keep up the great work.

[@NowinLao]

Thank you. I'm glad to have you here 🙏

[@peacekeepermoe]

God bless you both, Todd and Nee Nee for bringing happiness to those people and kids at the village. Good to see them happy and smiling.

[@TS-2SLoW]

It was precious to see how respectful those kids were at the beginning when they were accepting candy from you! They bowed their heads! Ahaha.

[@fredyelinek40]

Lily and I know the joy of what you are doing! We do the same in the mountains of Mindanao where we live. We cant wate to see more of your videos!

[@nickhubbard3671]

Great video - distributing blankets is a really good idea. Great photos, and maps. sok dii der!

[@donotuse2281]

I live in America and enjoy watching your videos a lot, I have to say the two of you have good heart. You have given to lots of unfortunate people around Laos regardless of their race or religion. I pray for good health and prosperity for you both. Continue the good works. Hmong guy

[@scotbownes5627]

Another great one 👍🙂

[@puggsincyberspace]

I have to agree those girls fronted up and then the smiles. The one that the dress was to small looked so disappointed, but then a huge smile when the next one came out.

[@PanyandKham]

Always happy to follow you Todd :)

[@nevillelomas6368]

Hey Todd, that was magic mate,. Nev and Zona

[@magsxoa4519]

My family and relatives are from Long Chieng. My father, grandfather and relatives were involved with helping the CIA back in the day. Im sure you know the story of the Secret War. I just called my mom and told her about yours and NeeNee's YT channel. Hopefully she checks it out. Thank you both for helping the villages as much as you can. ❤

[@garthoberg8853]

[@bobcat2960]

Todd and Neenee, so loving of you both giving to the beautiful native peoples you meet, visit, and speak with, and those sweet young girls clearly loved those special dresses made 'by hand,' by one of your inspiring awesome subscribers! Those girls will surely enjoy their new outfits and also seemed grateful to have a one-of-a-kind dress! Jjust awesome to see, and thank you for sharing another one of you and Neenee's heartwarming videos. Stay happy, healthy and safe to you both.

[@hotpursuit75]

God blessed you Todd and Neenee, you guys not only open our eyes to a beautiful country with magical landscape. You also opened our eyes (certainly mine) to beautiful people. They're having tough life yet they still welcoming you and your wife before you guys handing out gifts. Even a blind man can see the joy and smiles on their face, especially the kids. You can have lots of donation but without the physical work that you and your wife put in. It would not be possible..... May God bless all that lend a hand to make it possible especially to Todd and Neenee.

[@KennoRob]

Well done Julie ,from,Victoria,Australia. The joy and appreciation you brought to those girls...wonderful.I bet you had tears (Julie). Another successful distribution of things to put a smile on their little faces. Well done Todd and Neenee. Kenno...West Aust

[@lyradm1]

You can't do any better than those smiles on the girls who received the dresses. Brought tears to my eyes. Right on Todd and Neenee. Good karma for all.

[@reidadams4277]

So cute. The girls step forward when they see a color they like. Prettiest kids ever. I'm not sure that they don't have a better life than the kids here. They're allowed to play and be kids.

[@hotpaprika67]

Great to watch people spreading virtue with charity, God bless.

[@2506Pete]

Well done Todd, Neenee. Bought a tear to my eye there giving out the dresses 😪

[@johneverett6751]

Well done Julie...💐💐💐Good work..👍👍👍

[@scottmcintire8634]

Another wonderful video! It really brings back memories of a 2-1/2 hour trek I did on the outskirts of Sapa, Lao Cai province, Vietnam. I visited a Black Hmong home in the village of Ma Tra about midway through my guided trek among the hillside rice terraces being worked by the Hmong villagers (a couple of the women working with their babies secured to their backs with wrapped blanket harnesses. The Black Hmong home looked very similar, with wood walls, a tin roof over wooden rafters with a Buffalo hind quarter hanging to season, and dirt floor with a fire pit. There were two elderly matriarchs and a number of curious young village kids. One of the Hmong aunties let me try some homegrown tobacco through her bamboo water pipe (a Viet bong? 😊). My guide had brought some sweet rolls as a gift for the family, and I gave the auntie some Vietnamese Dong as a gift. It made for an interesting stop on the trek, as did trying my hand at uprooting rice seedlings in a terrace paddy for transplanting under the guidance of a Hmong woman, during which some Hmong late teenagers/early twenty-somethings got into a friendly mud, water and uprooted rice stalk fight next to me! Cheers!

So beautiful support, do I need copyright to do like you are doing?, coz that's awesome, like your kindness so much

Hi Todd and Neenee, hope you're doing well? As always loved the video. Was really touched by the girls and their new dresses as well as your kindness and generosity towards everyone else. Looking forward to the next vid. Also looking forward to saving my pennies and hopefully getting over later in the year. Take it easy

[@jozehari2730]

wow! that was such a good time to watch Todd

[@ken-b7o]

Hi Todd. I left Laos at a very young age. I never heard of Hor people. Anyway, thanks to you and neenee’s generosities. You two brought the smile and happiness to them.

[@kiabtoomlauj6249]

I left Laos at a young age, too. And I was born in northern Luangprabang, not far from Phongsaly... but we left northern Lungprabang to northern ViengChan, when I was just a year-old & lived in northern Vientiane until I was 5 or 6, when we left Laos, 1975. But I've heard --- decades later, when I discussed some aspects of the history of Laos with my brother in law, who was a very young officer in Laos, in the early 1970s, having trained in Thailand, as an officer, & having traveled extensively throughout Laos, as an officer... he told me ---- of the Hor tribe, along with many other small Lao ethnic groups.

[@ken-b7o]
