Children
without citizenship found in 20 'ghost' Myanmar border villages
- TNA, January 6, 2006
We wonder if these, or other ghost villages, could be spotted on
Google Earth.
Thousands of children without Thai citizenship have been found
living in over 20 villages not included on the map of the northern
Thai-Myanmar border province of Mae Hong Son, according to non-governmental
organisations (NGOs).
Like ghosts, the villages do not appear on maps or in government
records, though some adults in the villages have proper documents.
Located far from government services, children do not have access
to schools...
