Southeast Asia admiration thread

[Wild North]

As there is a "Mongolia admiration thread" here, so why not (lol) a Southeast Asia admiration thread.. Seriously there´s something fascinating about these countries at "the other end" in realtion to Europe. In this region, like Europe and the Middle East, there were early civilizational beginnings.. More precisely it´s about these countries; like Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia and Indonesia etc..

Well don´t take this too seriously. What you say may be true today. But it may have been different in ancient times.

The Philippines: fantastic food, the most beautiful beaches I have seen and a fantastic culture with the most warm and friendly people I have ever met and because of my relationship and my in-laws I can call it a home away from home. And despite of it's problems a cheerful and optimistic country. Where in Europe I feel stagnation - in the Philippines people still believe that tomorrow will be better.

In this documentary we travel to Indonesia, the Sulawesi island, there we know the Toraja and Bajau, two ethnic groups who have a very particular culture and traditions. There, we attended a Toraja funeral, an event that they have become an amazing ritual of several days. We dive into the wonderful world that lies behind the coral reef that runs through large part of the Indonesian archipelago. And finally we boarded on the Bajau (sea gypsies) houseboats who live in even closer contact with the sea. In fact, they could not conceive of life without it.

▶ Documentary. "Indonesia.The Ghosts of Sulawesi" http://pdoc.es/SulawesiPL (https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=http%3A%2F%2Fpdoc.es%2FSulawesiPL&redir_token=YACRKs5SfEXpac8fdN8b0rHkmBd8MTU3NzgwNT I3M0AxNTc3NzE4ODcz&event=video_description&v=GHe5I4dnrw4) The inhabitants of Sulawesi have always had a very close relationship with the sea. These men belong to the Bugui ethnic group, considered the best boat builders and sailors in the Indian Ocean. But there is another ethnic group which lives in even closer contact with the sea. In fact, they could not conceive of life without it. That group is the Bajau. At the other end of the island, in the calm waters of the Gulf of Tomini, these nomads have for centuries conquered the sea. They live out their lives on these small, fragile boats called leppas, where they are born, marry, reproduce and die. In them they move along the coast, propelled by the winds and the currents, and rarely set foot on dry land. Their origins remain unknown, though some anthropologists believe they come from the south of the Malaysian peninsula. Since then, innumerable legends have surrounded these the Sea Gypsies They rarely venture far from the coast. Their lives are spent fishing close by the mangrove swamps and the coral reefs. Here, they find almost everything they need. The Bajau know many different fishing methods, but perhaps the most curious of all is this one, fishing with kites. The technique they use is simple but very effective. It consists of attaching a hook to the kite, which is made from fern leaves, and with the help of a pole, the fisherman can move the hook as far out as he wants. The swaying of the kite keeps the bait in constant movement, attracting above all the flying fish. The government tried to house the first families along the coast, but they were unable to adapt to dry land, and soon returned to their boats. Then, the Bajau suggesting building the village over the sea, and so Torosiaji was born. Though the greatest number of Bajaus live in Sulawesi, there are also groups of them in Myanmar, where they are called Moken, or ‘the people drowned by the sea’; in Thailand, they are known as the Chao Nam, or ‘water people’, and they can also be found along the coasts of the Philippines and Vietnam. 16:50:00 The mosque and the school are the only buildings in Torosiaji standing on dry land. Well, not exactly dry land, because they have been build on foundations made of coral. At midday, the waters are very shallow, and this is when the Bajau comb the sea bottom in search of food. Their basic diet is fish and rice. The rice they buy in the markets on the coast, where once a week the women go to sell the fish they have caught, and buy basic necessities such as fresh water. The Bajau are also magnificent divers, and can remain underwater for over five minutes, and dive down up to 15 metres.

Our train leaves Hue’s suburbs behind, passing fish farms and rice fields on it’s way to the sea, firstly skirting the shoreline on the level before climbing the hills above the rocky coast, punctuated with deserted, pristine sandy beaches. Apart from the railway there is no sign of human habitation, just natural palm forests clinging to the hillsides above an untouched coastline. We descend back to sea level at Da Nang, here we leave the train for the short coach trip to Hoi An, stopping to see the Marble Mountains where we visit a Buddhist Pagoda and the Huyen Khong grotto. The following day we take a walking tour around Hoi An Old Town.

Many of the klongs, as the transport canals are called in Thailand, have been filled up within the last decades. Nevertheless there are still numerous which are worth being visited. We take a boat through the Klongs of Thonburi, east of the Chao Phraya River. Already 20 years ago we had made this tour. At that time one could hardly talk about houses along the klongs. It were more wooden shacks that look very poor. This has changed. Today you find some pretty houses and some are noble designed. The majority is kept simple but clean and tidy. Now and then you can still see women washing the clothes or kids swimming in the klongs. There used to be a lot more. 20 years ago it was customary to wash themselves in the water of the klongs. Today, most homes have running water, you can see the laid water pipes. It amazes us to find stately monitor lizards in the klongs. After we have passed some monitor lizards swimming by, we can also observe others sunbathing at close range. They allegedly are harmless because they are very shy. Whether this is the case, we cannot and will not check. Occasionally, you find merchants coming with their boats. For quite some time, you don't find floating markets in Bangkok anymore. On the edge of Klongs of Thonburi we see a whole new neighborhood springing up out of the ground. Partly one built also multi-story residential buildings. Between them one repeatedly find temples. We stop at one of these temples. A monk comes to the boat and gives us bread. It is meant for the fish in front of temples. A few pieces are sufficient to bring the water to a boil. Only now, we realize the richness in fish in the canals. Fishing in front of the temples is prohibited. Here, the fish are considered sacred. The water-level is fairly constant since it is regulated by locks at the mouth into the Chao Phraya. ...... please read more: https://blog.myvideomedia.com (https://www.youtube.com/redirect?redir_token=ET9BUcW1vo7zQm1gL2bNJ57WNGN8M TU3NzgwOTkxMEAxNTc3NzIzNTEw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.myvideomedia.com&event=video_description&v=CexCW8cqMdU)

The "floating market" is a phenomenon of Bangkok where because of the many rivers, canals and waterways (called Khlongs) where people live on these canals and use them like a highway with boats as means of transport instead of cars or trucks. When it comes to market days, Saturday and Sunday, farmers truck their goods to the market by boat as that is their means of transport. People come to the market by boat and land vehicles to buy from local food vendors who offer their goods right from their boats. The "floating market" is just 12 kilometers from downtown Bangkok, but it can take an hour to get there by car due to the immense traffic problems, which coming by boat alleviates that problem and that is another reason the market on the water makes practical sense. The floating market has a market on land as well as part of the attraction. The land market has a larger variety of food and goods selection and probably a little more dear in price. An added attraction are the longtail boat cruises. These odd long and narrow vessels, some with car engines balanced off their stern with long propeller shafts are another wonder of the waterways that serve as roads. These water roads, khlongs, have intersections and traffic in two directions with everything like paved roads, but these highways are paved with water. There are many sights to see, sea creatures, homes of every look and kind and even golden Buddhist temples on the shores of these networked khlongs.

Walking around the infamous Ho Chi Minh City Nightlife area in District 1. Click here ▶ to see highlights and guide. (From Wiki): Ho Chi Minh City also known by its former name of Saigon , is the most populous city in Vietnam with a population of 8.4 million as of 2017. Located in southeastern Vietnam, the metropolis surrounds the Saigon River and covers about 2,061 square kilometres (796 square miles). From 1955 to 1975, Saigon was the capital of the Republic of Vietnam, commonly known as South Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh City’s nightlife scene varies from one district to another, though venues that play live music close soon after midnight due to Vietnam’s rather strict laws. If you’re looking to party in style, District 1’s rooftop bars and swanky nightclubs stay open until 03:00 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47qzB5UyiXU&t=180s) or later, offering excellent service, dance tunes, stylish ambience, well-dressed crowds, and panoramic views of the vibrant city.

Relaxing sounds of ocean waves at night while walking the beach in Koh Chang. Spent some time in Koh Chang Island, Thailand and did some filming sunsets and sunrises around the island before I leave Thailand. Enjoy!

Morning Ocean walk in Krabi, Thailand. This is a walk from Ao Nang Beach to Pai Plong Beach in HDR. This is my first ambience video test in HDR. It's so hot and humid. I think I lost several pounds filming this.

I always described myself as "a weeb, but only for Asian countries where you get caned for being a menace to society and where they have healthy testosterone levels". I love Indonesia the most but also Vietnam. :) I'll probably post a few things in here from my collection when I have some time tonight. Also, I am counting Madagascar as Southeast Asia since I only care about the Malayo-Polynesian population native to it hehe.
