Hehe, the pics officially belongs to my friend, as she's the one taking it while I just sit on the bench and eat ice cream (Did I mentioned that the camera used was crappy too ? But that's another story, lol)

I've seen Zhuang people used R, as in "Rao" they called themselves "Puad Rao" kaa. And so far I've never heard Tai people in Sipsong Panna used "R" ka. The reason P'Nueng never come to AF again is because, he is pretty sick and tired of all those lao members here ka. And he did passed on a word that he pity the Thai members dealing with those unreasonable people too. There are a lot of Tai kadai language variety, those people in Dehong seems to be more comfortable with central Thai dialect, but those in Jinghong can almost understood "Kam muang" perfectly, but have trouble understanding lao from lao PDR.

And yes, my friends from SipSong Panna have a message to lao members here, that echo the thoughts of all of the Tai. They painstakingly type in out in Chinese, and I will take that message and post it here+providing the translation myself. (Some of the teens uses very harsh language, but I think I'll omited that out.)

Yo tanga *HUGS* Not for good, have to still come back after 4 years There's no Nasi Lemak in China, wakao eh! I'm going to China,before I'm embarking for my prison in the USA, and yes the local Tai people can understand me, and vice versa. They're so cool to Thai tourists,btw! My luggage now is loaded with freebies
P'Peaceman is married ??? Oh wow, I'm now like totally broken hearted Happy Honeymoon!
No prob. The staple food there is khao niew, and there's bbq fish with lemongrass, fish tom yum, nor-mai with nam jim. The sauce taste like those of Suki MK in my opinion. And there's Yum kai mod daeng too, and most of all, their gai yang taste great!!!!11 We've eaten lots of fruits too, and their taste is not too intense as the ones we have in Thailand. Pretty palate cleasing The Songkran is very wild there, they will use water guns and huge bucket of water to splash you, and the guys can be pretty lecherous too..Not going to go into details about it, but it was rather fun. A slightly tone down version of Khao San Road Songkran, in my opinion. Oh, and their Mahnorah dance was great too, stars perform on stage with songs from Golf and Mike (They're popular there now) Potato, and the other Tai songs.

Wow Erla i envy you jung. thanks ka for sharing. i will visit Yunnan someday.

Thank you Euphoria-cheers

Last time i went to HK i stayed at the Park Lane hotel just opposite Victoria park. Good view. i played Badminton every morning with my cousin there. I could go to Tsim Sa Tsui alone too to change my dress color I had bought. from the station i take behind the hotel then changed to the train to Kowloon. Very comfortable by subway I recall the exist F yeah so many exist but very narrow escalator for just one person. I rarely traveling by subway in Bangkok though. I wish all step of sky train in BKK changed to escalator all tomorrow. Piang!
