What the photo shows most of all to me is that although these children are from a poor area, they are bright eyed, healthy looking and their clothes as clean as any child's from the western world. It proves to me that you cannot buy pride, it is something that is instilled inside you from a very young age. <abbr><em>Hoo Dons last blog post..<a href="http://www.thaisabai.org/?p=301">The Rising Price Of Honey</a></abbr></em> Your photograph clearly captures the closely knit community that these children live in.

No matter which you use everyone will understand you mean foreigner. Most Thai's I've been around pronounce it falung...but have heard the other pronunciations from Thai's as well.
