A Karen elder sits among bolders that are home to 15 extended families forced from their village after government troops burned it. The families are internally displaced refugees now living along the Salween River in Burma near the Thai border. Their umbrellas were donated by various aid agencies.
Children sit on a water transport cart which also serves as a play toy.
This photo was taken during the dry season at the Huay Ka Loke refugee camp, one of the first refugee camps established in Thailand. The camp is famous for its dancers who travel from camp to camp spreading the latest news through song and dance.
