About	This photograph was taken during my trip to the northernmost area of Thailand. These 2 child are offspring of the communist party of China whom migrating from Myanma during the end of Chinese civil war in 1949. Looking back to its history, this photo was taken at Santikhiri, formerly known as Mae-Salong situated on the moutain of Doi Mae-Salong, Chiengrai Province. Santikhiri's early history centered around the Golden Triangle's opium trade, in which its distinctive population – the "lost army" of the Republic of China Army's 93rd Division – became involved. At the conclusion of the Chinese Civil War in 1949, some remnants of the anti-communist Kuomintang (KMT) forces refused to surrender, including the 93rd Division, led by General Tuan Shi-wen (also known as Chiwan Khamlue).[1] The division fought its way out of Yunnan in southwestern China, and its soldiers lived nomadic lives in Burma's (now Myanmar) jungles before seeking asylum in Mae Salong. In exchange for their asylum, they fought for Thailand until 1982, helping to counter the communist insurgency at the Thai frontier. In reward, the Thai government granted citizenship to most of the KMT soldiers and their families.

A good capture and a very interesting about. I did visit Taiwan and saw "KMT heritage" over there. Also your info about Birma is most interesting, hardly any news comes out of Birma.
