People Met On My Backpacking127 – Amazing Koreans . The total distance from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi (150 km, 3 hours) and from there to Sangklaburi (215 km, 5 hours) is about 375 km. The total time required is about 8 hours (average 50 to 60 kilometers per hour). The reason why it took longer compared to the distance was not only the bus condition but also the road conditions. Compared to 20 years ago, it took a long time even though roads, especially mountain roads, were well maintained. The winding mountain path was still intact. It was like buses that struggled to climb Daegwallyeong and Hangyeryeong when they went from Seoul to the East Sea in the past. . I think this road condition is fatal to a person who gets carsick badly. Antiseasickness pills are must. Fortunately, I don't get any car sickness. That's why I could travel the world. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have dared to challenge the worst road sections of India, Peru, Bolivia, Pakistan, China, Nepal, Andaman, Tunisia, Swaziland, etc. Unfortunately, sometimes my wife was unable to accompany me because of her severe car sickness. But this time she could join me to the third Sangkhlaburi despite of her horror car sickness. . Twenty years ago, when we first went to the Mon Bridge in Sangkhlaburi, I asked the locals if there were anything to see. They told me that there were nothing to see because of their poor life. But I tried crossing the bridge alone and looked around the Mon village myself. They were right, there was nothing to see in reality except a typical poor farmhouse. In other words, there was nothing new because it was not at all different from the ruralscape of Korea that I had seen in the 50s when I was young. . This time again, I left my wife on the Mongyo Bridge (there were chairs on both sides of the bridge where people could sit and rest) and entered the Mongyo neighborhood alone. Big changed from 20 years ago. First of all, modern buildings stood out on the side of the road. It belonged to the overseas Chinese. The number of shops has also increased. But one thing that I was really surprised was to see a new view there. It was many mini vans stopped on the narrow road there in Mongyo Village. Amazing! They numbered cars 1 to 9 on white paper and pasted them on the glass in front and back of the vehicle. . It was surprising that I saw Korean in such a place (Mongyo Village), but what was more surprising was that nine minivans were standing long in a row on a narrow road with a number tag attached of each. Really nice to see. All the vehicles were black tinted. I thought it was natural cause it was a hot country. The problemwas that there were no people around the cars. So I looked around their town more closly and then I came back to the same place on the way back. . Fortunately, unlike before, there were some middle-aged Thais who looked like drivers around the vans. I asked them if people in the vans were from Korea. Then suddenly one guy shouted something in Thai out loud. Then after a while, a middle-aged Thai came up to m. He asked me in English what was wrong with me. Only then did I realized that he was the only person who could speak English. (Note: There was always someone who helped me communicating in English wherever I went in the world. In any traditional market in rural northern Vietnam, in rural Bolivia, in Irkutsk, in Russia, in rural Peru, etc., it's the power of English.) . He told me everything I was curious about. He also told me the miserable life of the Mon ethnic there. He was kindly to be thankful for Koreans. According to him, all Koreans who came here by vans were volunteers. Koreans have offered them various help, including household goods, to the Mon people close to the Myanmar border. Korean volunteers worked here for about 10 days and went back. It was 10 a.m. at this time. I wanted to meet those proud Koreans in person, but it was impossible. Because they were supposed to across Lake Kaoram. . I think Koreans are really amazing. Because I have been able to see Koreans in every corner of the world so far. There were so many cool Koreans I've met, including Koreans serving restaurants in Kampala Uganda, Jordanian missionaries in Petra, working part-time in Bethlehem Israel, selling coffee in Bogota Comlumbia, running guesthouse in the Amazon jungle Bolivia, working in Damascus Syria, teaching English at the Cusco guesthouse in Peru and teaching scuba diver in Dahab Egypt, and so on. . Thank you. |
