Thanks Sirikittong. 
It's interesting how the Shans are the only ethnic minority in Burma whose men don't wear a sarong.

Yes definatly we arent very homongenous country with 54 ethnic minoritys... but we still have seperate pure viets as u know as Kinh's , currently the country has 83.5 million people, first largest minority Hoa ( ethnic Chinese ) , second I think the Khmer Krom people....and third not sure tai or tay maybe........
dude wtf is ameriasians ...
u mean mixed with white people ....... wat no way I dont believe we our mix with negritos I remember there were small remants of negritos in Vietnam long ago but were all extinct before Nam Viet was even created.......... No way are we mixed with negritos do u mean minority groups.............. cuz I sure dont look negritos bro I look viet ( NEA style ) .......
Yes same with me too I luv it too even though I wasn't born there
...I was born in Malaysia during the war though ... went to Canada live there for 15 years now ......... currently studying in university right now ..............
how about u bro where u live?/
I hate the commie government as well and the unjustices they done to minority groups, corruption, etc ........
P.S did u c me on Lac Viet ......... I was there u know
u should say hi to me there in the introductionif you combine all of the Tai ethnics in vietnam, they are the largest minority. i dont know, i've always wondered why the vietnamese government group them so different when the truth is they can all understand eachothers with some trouble.

I can help to notice the similarity of Southern Thai dance with Javanese dance, especially the "kain" or the cloth that cover legs and waist used as "sarong", the patterns looks like Javanese batik.
Is it somehow influenced by Java....?
Here the Bedhaya dance, from the royal court of Java.
^^ Beautiful.
The similarities would be the fact that southern thailand once were part of Sri Vijaya Empire; after its fall, Ayuthaya sent in an expedition and subjugated the region and hence been part of Ayuthaya/Siam for over 5 centuries.

What I notice about SEA dance in General.
There is lots and lots and lots of gold attire.
From the head dresses, to the belts, the jewelery, to even the gold silk threading in the ebrodery work.
Just Bling everywhere.

My wife is a professional Thai dancer from the north (Lanna). Take a look at her website, there are a lot of nice pictures in the photo gallery.

This is one of my favorite pictutes of my wife dancing. It is a Lanna-style mask dance. She is a Shan from Mae Hong Son. I think this dance has a large Shan/Burmese influence.

What North Pole posted was a pic of Sri Vijay dance, yes. But it isn't exactly Southern Thai dance. Southern Thai is stufff like Chatdree and Nora. The bottoms for Southern Thai dance are the same as Central Thai, except for the tops and the crowns.
Anyway, Sri Vijay is an archaeological dance that was created in 1950s (around that time) in honor of the great cultural hubs of Thailand in ancient times. There's Sri Vijay, Chiang Saen, Lopburi, and Sukhothai (and maybe others). These dances are not long held traditional dances, they were made up with modern day influences (not intentionally).
