Why Does My Chest Hurt From The Cat

Handicrafts - Handicraft


Last week we have the 20-minute drive from Mae Sot remote refugee village visited Doi Hin Kiu. HWF supports to school there P'Yang Daung. The village is located on the monastery area and therefore the refugees on the Thai police, could send it, sure. Chaung Ku knows where an old Karen, who can skillfully handle bamboo. We took over the school bag and ordered bamboo strips for 10 bags.
goal is to compare the hand-carved bamboo with the industrially produced bamboo. What are the main differences between the various production processes?
course es das Ziel, die Bambusleisten ausschließlich von Flüchtlingen herstellen zu lassen, da somit ja das Konzept „Flüchtlinge helfen Flüchtlingen“ erhalten bleiben kann. Doch können wir nicht ausschließen, dass vor allem bei der Herstellung der Testserie gewisse Produktionsschritte konventionell umgesetzt werden müssen. 

Last week we visited the refugee village Doi Hin Kiu, which is about 20 min by car from Mae Sot. HWF supports the school P'Yang Daung. The village is settled on the land of the monastery and that’s why the Thai police cannot send the refugees away. Chaung Ku knows an old Karen who knows very well how to work with bamboo. We brought over the schoolbag and ordered bamboo for more than ten bags. 
We’d like to compare hand cut bamboo with the industrial one. What are the main differences between these two different production processes regarding the quality? 
Of course it’s our aim to let the bamboo be produced just by refugees, so that the concept “refugees help refugees“ can remain. Though we cannot avoid to try some conventional steps of production for realizing the testing series.
