				TRAVEL
				------

       ( A journey north through Thailand takes you into the heart of the 
	Golden Triangle, a place full of mystery and captivating scenery. NIK 
	GARIFALAKIS made the journey on a rickety train and a speedboat.)

	TRIANGLE'S HIDDEN TRASURE

	...... Laos, Burma and Thailand are linked at this spot, threaded 
	together by the Mekong River.......

	...... With the Mekok river slithering alongside it like a snake, 
	Thato offers unhindered views of Burma's mountains. Army jeeps cruise 
	by as you sit in the divine Prasit cafe (the best food so far) stare 
	longingly into Burma.......

	...... Another hour on the speedboat will land you at the village 
	of Rummit, a sprawling, picturesque collection of thatched, double
	-storey huts belonging to the Karen people. Renowned mainly for their 
	Burmese origin, this group of hill tribe numbers four million in 
	neighboring Burma. There are about 300,000 in Thailand.

	Here you can smoke a Burmese cigar, bought at Mesa Lak, with an 
	old man and trace the outline of his genealogy on the tattoos coverting 
	his arms. Many Karen males have these markings as a sign of who they 
	are and from where they orginate.......

	[ VENTURE Holidays markets holidays to Bangkok and the Chiang 
	Mai/Chiang Rai regions of Thailand. They are priced from $1199 at the 
	Royal River Hotel and include Qantas airfares and five nights 
	accommodation....

	Departures are from Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Cairns..
	....

	nearest AFTA/licensed travel agent.]
