Okay. Let's talk about Karen Villages (Long Neck Villages) in Thailand and why we decided to visit this one. In Huay Pu Keng, the community consists of Kayan, an ethnic group who escaped from Myanmar and fled to Northern Thailand. There are three different communities in Thailand, two of which tourists come to only take pictures of the Kayan. However, this village is trying something different that benefits the people living there. Huay Pu Keng adopted a "Community-Based Tourism" approach which means a few things. The most important factor is that the community is earning money that does not go back into the pockets of officials. They do this by offering their own tours run by locals, earning money through homestays, and putting on workshops so you can actually learn about the village. We thought this would be an opportunity to open up for discussion on whether this is a step in the right direction. We understand we'll get comments saying we should never have gone there in the first place, but the issue is deeper than just ending tourism in these villages. Without it, they have no means of income. If you've read this far, what are your thoughts? Leave a comment.
Here are a few links about the village to help you form your own opinion:
