Download or read book Traders of the Golden Triangle written by Andrew Forbes and published by Cognoscenti Books. This book was released on 2013-02-03 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the latter half of the twentieth century the little-known and often lawless region where Laos, Burma, Thailand and China meet has become known and widely romanticised as 'The Golden Triangle'. Originally a Western designation applied to the region because of its wealth in jade, silver, rubies, lumber, rare animal products and, above all, opium, the name has stuck and is today accepted both in Chinese and in Thai.By reputation, by very definition, the area is off the beaten track. The home of drug warlords, arms dealers, insurgent armies, latter-day slave traders and plain, old-fashioned bandits, it is also the home of an extraordinarily wide range of colourful ethnic minorities, many still only partly known and understood, and a veritable Tower of Babel linguistically.36,500 words, 70 historical images, 46 contemporary images, 5 maps, Bibliography
Download or read book The Haw written by Andrew D. W. Forbes and published by Art Media Resources. This book was released on 1997 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Golden Triangle region where Burma, Thailand, Laos and China meet has long been a lawless region, home to wandering tribes, drug warloads, arms dealers, and plain old-fashioned bandits. Yet within this widely romanticized region one group, the Yunnanese Chinese or Haw', have established themselves as cultural mediators and merchants par excellance, penetrating the area with their armed mule caravans. For centuries past, and down to the present day, the Haw have been the unrivaled masters of the Golden Triangle. This volume is a comprehensive survey of the Haw life and customs, its past, present and future.
