老挝深山原始部落民族，女人坦胸露背只为方便哺乳？还是男人养老的天堂？

Under the eaves at the foot of the mountain Several men sitting together Smoking and drinking tea Listening to the news on the radio They hardly ever get involved in housework. No work in the fields, no fetching water, no chopping wood A woman passing by Put the bucket filled with water at the door Here The order of genders seems to be reversed Women carry life on their shoulders Men sit at home Women go out to work The man stayed in the house Woman plowing the soil under the scorching sun Man napping in the shadows New arrivals Everyone will be surprised Why this tribe Men are like “idlers” Women have become the “pillars” This mysterious ethnic group is called the Aka A life in Between the high mountain jungles of Indochina Peninsula Ancient ethnic groups Their footprints span Border between Laos, Thailand, Myanmar and Yunnan, China A typical “transnational nation” Also Akha Life in a village in Yunnan, China Asphalt road has been built Children attend modern schools Women at festivals Wearing traditional costumes for photos In the mountainous areas of northern Laos All this still remains in the original rhythm A woman works tirelessly throughout her life Men’s status remains high In fact, this minority Better known in China’s Yunnan province According to the custom here Aka women start from the day of pregnancy Exposing the left breast Until the child is two years old This is because they believe in exposing breasts. Only then can you absorb the nectar of heaven and earth Children can grow up healthily after sucking milk In fact This is inseparable from the Aka people’s advocacy of fertility culture. Even those Local girls in modern clothes I would occasionally lift up my shirt to wipe the sweat off my face. No shyness about exposing the body Normally Akha women give birth to four or five children at least. As many as seven or eight Therefore, their breasts Exposed outside for many years Therefore People are accustomed to The Aka people here are called “the naked milk tribe” This nation Is it the same as China’s “breast-exposing tribe”? Towards modern development Are people’s lives still going according to Same living habits as before In this issue we will go into this “A World Turned Upside Down” Through the Old Jin’a Bridge The lives of these real people Go see a mother How to carry the whole family on your back in the mountains A teenager How to struggle between knowledge and tradition A nation How to Live in Poverty and Faith Continue your destiny Depart from Luang Prabang in northern Laos Heading north along the rugged mountain road The wheels bumped on the gravel Dust mixed with mist Like a curtain that never fades The further you go into the mountains, the weaker the signal becomes. The narrower the road Finally, only a narrow path remained Going forward, you can only climb on your feet. Right here On the high ground covered by clouds all year round Akha villages are scattered among the mountain ridges The wooden house is built on the slope Roof covered with moss Smoke rising from the roof Blending with the clouds The Akha people are one of the few ethnic minorities in Laos. Still maintaining traditional lifestyle One of the mountain peoples Their villages are mostly located in On the mountainside at an altitude of 1000 to 1500 meters Follow the terrain near water Outside the village are steep terraces and primeval forests There is no electricity or internet in the village. There’s not even a smooth road. Children have to walk three hours along the mountain road to go to school If it rains The muddy road is slippery and people often fall and get injured Geographical isolation Let the Aka people become the people of the mountains and forests They are almost isolated from the world They have lived on growing corn and rice for generations Occasionally go up the mountain to hunt and collect herbs Limited arable land area and insufficient fertility The harvest can barely sustain food and clothing Water shortage in dry season and muddy in rainy season Many villagers are under the eaves Digging ditches to divert rainwater for storage This is their “tap water system” Because the mountainous environment is barren They have a reverence for the land Every time new land is reclaimed The elders will hold a sacrificial ceremony Pray for forgiveness from the mountain god During the ceremony A man lights a fire and chants a spell to kill a chicken Women can only watch from a distance Even though they work the hardest But not eligible to participate The “Communication with God” phase In Laos The Akha people and the neighboring The Hmong and Kemu peoples live here together There is no conflict between them But there is not much communication The language spoken by the villagers Very different from Lao Even if foreigners understand Lao I don’t understand their dialect either. That’s why Traditional culture of the Akha people Customs and lifestyles are preserved intact But it is also out of touch with the outside world’s modernization. In contrast The Akha people in Yunnan, China Already entered a new stage The same silver jewelry and the same clothes Now appearing in front of tourists’ cameras Known as the symbol of “ethnic minority customs” Young people can speak Mandarin There is a TV at home There is even a homestay at the entrance of the village Akha people in Yunnan Learned to turn culture into livelihood The Akha people of Laos Still exchanging body for life The distance between the two places More than just a border on a map It is also a watershed of the times Men in Akha Village, Laos rarely go down the mountain They say the outside world is too far and too complicated Women must Traveling back and forth between the mountains and home every day They chop wood, farm, and carry water Also taking care of children and livestock For them Mountains are the source of life Also a shackle And such a life It has lasted for hundreds of years Akha village in northern Laos It was just dawn The fog in the mountains has not yet dissipated The crowing of cocks has begun one after another The house was filled with smoke from the fire The women had already risen They first added firewood to boil water Then scoop out the leftover rice from last night and cook it into porridge Share with family members The men were still smoking and drinking tea in the house The children were half asleep The figure of a woman Disappeared at the end of the mountain road This is how Aqiao spends his days She carried a bamboo basket on her back and had rags wrapped around her feet. There is a silver ornament on the head that is bigger than the face He walked and spun with a spinning rod at his waist. She walks for several hours every day. Walking through the wet woods to chop wood Or weeding and sowing in the fields After the sun rises The air in the mountains is getting hotter and hotter Sweat ran down her neck into her collar She didn’t have time to wipe it. Akha woman Accustomed to facing fatigue with silence At noon Aqiao will find a rock to sit on at the foot of the mountain Take out the dry rice balls you brought with you Occasionally with a few wild vegetable leaves The bamboo basket beside her was already filled with firewood. And her feet were covered with mud Such a life It is an essential part of her daily life In the Aka world Women’s work never has a “day off” Chopping wood, fetching water, and farming Raising pigs, spinning yarn, and taking care of children All the trivialities of life are on their shoulders The men are under the eaves Smoking a pipe and repairing farm tools Occasionally go out to participate in village ceremonies If someone asks about the division of labor between men and women They just say calmly “Women are diligent and men are wise” In the Akha people’s concept Women are born to work Men are born to think This kind of “thinking” Often reflected in sacrifice and power Whenever there is a festival or someone in the village is sick Men will put on robes and chant mantras to pray for blessings The woman quietly prepared the offerings in the distance. They were not allowed near the altar You cannot touch the sacrificial utensils directly. They can give But you can’t participate Can contribute but cannot speak out Aqiao, 38 years old Looks like he’s in his fifties She married early Became a mother at the age of fifteen She had given birth to more than a dozen children by the time she was in her thirties. Someone is alive Some people died young Her body had long been stiff from hard work. Hands as rough as bark But she still persists Because in the Akha The value of women It’s in everything she does. How much firewood can she carry? How many children can I support? How long can you work in the fields? At night, Aqiao carries firewood home The man in the house is still smoking by the fire She didn’t complain Just put down the firewood silently at the door Bending over to add fuel to the fire, cooking and feeding the pigs Children playing around the fire Such a life It’s destiny for her. It is also order She never questioned I never imagined any other life Because in this world Women don’t belong to themselves She belongs to the family, to her husband, to her children. Land belonging to the mountains Occasionally She will hear Chinese Akha women on the other side of the mountain “Go down the mountain by car” “Selling silver jewelry in the city” “Put on colorful clothes and take photos” She just smiled Said: “That is their fate” There was no envy or complaint in his tone. She believes Everyone is born with his own mountain In the Aka world Men’s pace of life Completely different from women In the morning when women have already gone to work in the fields The man slowly got up Sitting around the fire Light up a pipe Looking at the gradually brightening mountain fog outside the house The air in the house is filled with the smell of grass and wood smoke The men were not talking about the harvest from the fields. It’s the news in the village Whether a particular sacrifice was successful Whose child is sick? Labor is not part of their daily routine Thinking and ritual are their “duties” This gender division of labor Derived from the ancient Akha social structure The Akha people still maintain The village system centered on the “patrilineal family” Decision-making power on all important matters All in the hands of men Whether allocating land to build houses Or a village sacrifice? It’s always men who speak Although women work the most But no right to speak They completed It’s just “basic labor” to keep the family running Men hold “symbolic power” This is a privilege given to them by society. Akha village Almost every home has a fire. The fire is the center of the home It is also a symbol of power The man sitting by the fire has the highest position Considered the “main position” Men eat first Women and children waiting aside Wait until they finish eating Then they can share the remaining food. This order has been passed down from our ancestors to the present day. No one thinks it is unreasonable Because in the Aka people’s concept Men are born “masters” Women are “accessories” In the Akha belief system Men were given the responsibility to communicate with the spirit world Whenever someone is sick Or there is a funeral or wedding in the village The ceremony is presided over by men They chanted incantations to ward off evil spirits. Believed to be able to communicate with mountain gods and ancestral spirits On the surface Men’s life is leisurely and easy In fact They also endure Another constraint from tradition Family dignity must be maintained Maintaining the continuity of ethnic rituals The elders talked about it all day long Who should inherit the position of priest? Who will preside over the next “Purification Ceremony”? Which family’s son should marry which village’s girl? Power flows in their language But never flow to those Women who truly support life This lifestyle isn’t about laziness. It is a kind of habit and culture Co-shaping social logic In Akha society Distribution of labor and power Long regarded as a law of nature Men don’t need to question or change They only need to Maintaining status then That’s how their days are. Filled with smoke, gossip and ritual Akha Village in the mountains Afternoon I often see this kind of picture Several men sat at the door of the bamboo house The sun shines on their faces A worn-out radio on his knees Laotian news came in sporadically Occasionally They looked up A busy woman on the distant hillside Calm expression No guilt or gratitude That is the order they are familiar with. A structure of life fixed by time However On the other side of the border not far away Men from Aka Village in Yunnan, China This lifestyle has already changed Many of them Working outside and running a B&B Become the family’s breadwinner Women are no longer a silent workforce It’s part of social activities Akha men in Laos Seems to be stuck in the past They keep the tradition Also trapped by tradition evening The mountain mist rises from the valley again The men put away their radios and added firewood The firelight reflected on their faces So calm that he had almost no expression Woman outside Still washing pots, feeding pigs, and taking care of children Inside and outside the fire It’s like two worlds But together they maintain The tribe’s survival balance In the Akha This balance is called the “divine order.” It keeps men in the driver’s seat Also makes women bend over forever In the Akha family Fire is not only a means of heating It is also a symbol of family order. The man sat on the east side of the fire The woman sat near the door This spatial division seems accidental It has lasted for hundreds of years Every family lives around the fire Eating, chatting, and passing on faith Also maintain power around the fire Lao Jin is a village elder in his sixties. Skin darkened by fireworks hoarseness He never left the mountains in his life. He said he witnessed the growth of this family Also witnessed women’s labor Decades of Men’s Silence Every time a change is mentioned His answers are always simple “The mountains haven’t changed, and neither have the people.” This sentence has almost become a motto in the village. However, his son Bao Jin I’ve started to have different ideas Bao Jin is more calculating than his father when he was young He knows about Cordyceps silver jewelry Even the money brought by tourists can change lives He tried to go down the mountain to sell goods I also want my son to go to school in town. But Bao Jin thinks learning is useless Land is the root of survival Bao Jin’s son Xiao Jiang He is the first child in his family to leave the village. Teenagers He was carrying a tattered schoolbag Went to a town dozens of kilometers away from home Living with relatives and going to school That was the first time he saw an electric light. Cars and TVs I also realized for the first time The world outside the mountain is more complicated than the legend But he is in school I always feel like I don’t fit in His accent, his clothes, even his skin color This made him an outlier among his classmates. He became the pride of the village. Neighbors came to see him The old man praised him as “a person who can write” Father by the fire Smiling with a rare cheerfulness But wait until everyone disperses Lao Jin sighed again He was worried that reading would make the children forget the mountains. Forgot the rules of our ancestors This intergenerational conflict In the Akha ethnic group, almost every family has The old man keeps the tradition Believe that order is unshakable Middle-aged people are eager for change But I worry about losing my roots Young people yearn for the outside world But I don’t know where the road is Educational migration Poverty and faith are intertwined This constitutes the subtle tension of this tribe Maybe in the future Can Xiao Jiang really walk out of this forest? Became the first college student in the village But for Lao Jin No matter how far he goes The light of the fire will always be on in the mountains That is the home of the Akha people. It is also the origin of their destiny. In the Akha village Faith is like air Invisible yet omnipresent People believe that there are spirits in the mountains Trees have souls Flames from a home fire It also carries the will of the ancestors Every time I go out to work Every sowing and harvest Prayer and ritual Even today Some young people already know science Listened to the news on the radio But they will still Offering sacrifices to the mountain god on important days Because it started from our ancestors. A habit that flows in the blood Most of the village sacrifices are presided over by men Men wearing black cloth and animal bones on their heads Chanting the mantra passed down from generation to generation Freshly cut wood burned in the center of the fire The women stood in the distance, their heads bowed, waiting They cannot approach the altar You are also not allowed to touch the sacrificial items. Bowls, knives, and chicken blood are all considered “sacred things” Only men are allowed to touch The villagers said This is the rule set by our ancestors. Once a woman is destroyed, it will bring disaster The Akha belief system Maintaining order with “taboos” These taboos The most profound effect on women Girls as adults Must learn to wear a heavy silver crown That’s a status symbol. It’s also a shackle They can’t take it off at will. Not on your parents’ birthdays. Combing hair or changing accessories Otherwise it will be considered “Cursing my parents to die young” Someone once forgot this rule Accused by the whole village Even forced to hold a “repentance ceremony” Kill a chicken and bury it in the soil in front of the door To appease “offended spirits” This taboo Penetrate into every detail of life Woman sleeping Avoid being directly in front of a fire Avoid going near the kitchen during menstruation You can’t step over men’s clothes. They were taught since childhood Women’s bodies are “unclean” Easy to anger the mountain god So they are used to keeping silent. Don’t dare to laugh or joke Don’t dare to look outsiders in the eye Faith brings order It also formed an invisible cage For the men in the village This is a way to “preserve tradition” For women This tradition means a lifetime of bondage Aqiao said The most frightening thing in her life Not sick, not working But “doing wrong things offends the gods” That fear is not superstition. It’s a An instinctive reaction shaped by culture Compared with Laos The Akha people in Yunnan, China I have already walked out of this taboo Festivals Women still wear silver jewelry Wear traditional clothing But that’s for celebration and heritage Rather than obedience Young Akha girl You can go to school to take photos and open an online store Headdress becomes decoration Faith becomes culture They retained the form But abandoned the constraints In the mountains of Laos These taboos still have absolute authority No one dares to break it easily Faith makes the Akha people Hundreds of years of isolation It is their way of communicating with nature It is also a support for finding order in poverty. But when the outside world’s modernization wave Slow influx The system is beginning to show cracks The younger generation gradually learns to question They watch TV and meet outsiders Begin to understand God Doesn’t Always Punish People who break the rules However Faith doesn’t collapse overnight. For the Akha people, faith is not a choice It’s part of survival Just as their land cannot be easily left Women’s taboos Also tightly entangled in fate by time On the map Northern Laos and Yunnan, China Only a thin border line separates But this line But it’s like an invisible crack in time The two Akha peoples of the same origin Separated into two completely different worlds Also Akha people In villages in China The mountain road has long been covered with asphalt Solar lights light up the night Children wearing school uniforms go to school in town Young people take photos and chat with smartphones Women dressed in traditional costumes to welcome tourists Turning silver jewelry and embroidery into handicrafts Selling to travelers from other places In the mountains of Laos The village is still sleeping in the old rhythm Woman walking barefoot on a dirt road Man warming himself by the fire The only light source at night It’s the fire from the chopped wood Economic gap First of all, it is reflected in the lifestyle Akha people in Yunnan With stable income from farming and tourism Can be in the market Buy salt, oil, medicine and cloth Akha people of Laos Still relying on the mountains and forests for self-sufficiency Occasionally selling firewood Or hand-woven cloth in exchange for a little money They have a vague concept of cash Almost no dependence on the market Some people say The Akha people of Laos are like those living in “Yunnan half a century ago” Everything is stuck in time This stagnation is not only on the material level It is more reflected in concepts and social structures Akha people in China Long since departed from the original patriarchal authority Family structures tend to be more equal Men and women share the work Children receive education Marriage gradually becomes freer In Laos The patriarchal system remains unbreakable Village power Still concentrated in the hands of male elders Women’s labor is considered a natural duty Few opportunities for education The root of this gap Not only the speed of national development It also lies in the barriers of transportation and policies Aka Village in Yunnan Connected to the power grid, highway and communication system Government support for ethnic minority economies Education and medical resources are gradually improving The Laotian village of Akha is surrounded by mountains. The nearest town is several hours’ walk away. International aid arrives sporadically But most of them remain short-term projects Unable to change the fundamental structure However, even under the same mountain range Continuation of culture Still showing a tenacious similarity Whether in China or Laos The Aka people all firmly believe that their ancestors protect their homes. Fire symbolizes life, silver jewelry represents dignity The difference is The Aka people of China use these symbols Transformed into a carrier of cultural display The Akha people of Laos Still consider it the cornerstone of faith One is inheritance One is dependence A path to the future One still dwells in the past Interestingly, This gap is in the younger generation Especially prominent Akha youth in Yunnan Can sing pop songs and wear modern clothes But still perform ethnic dances during festivals The Akha youth in Laos Then he chopped wood and herded cattle in the mountains and forests Occasionally hear foreign songs on the radio But I don’t know its meaning Despite the huge differences in life But the fate of the Akha people in the two places There is still a common anxiety How to preserve identity amidst modernization Akha people in Yunnan Worried about “overdevelopment” Culture reduced to performance The Akha people of Laos fear losing their faith Becoming a group of people left behind by the times A person who seeks roots in change A person who hopes for change while keeping his promise On the other side of the border in Yunnan Akha children Already able to go to middle school and university Some people learned to shoot short films to record the village Some people also run B&Bs to teach foreign languages Those stories are sometimes reported by foreign media. Called a “model for ethnic minority development” In Akha Village, Laos These things sound like myths Education has become a watershed that determines destiny Understand words I have the key to leave Illiterate I can only continue to bend over and work Xiao Jiang said that what he feared most was being forced to drop out of school The school is too far from home and the cost is too high Too little labor at home His mother wanted him to stay Help with farming His father hopes that he can succeed But I’m worried he’s gone too far. Never come back When night falls The village fire was lit again The old people sat on one side Telling stories of ancestors Children writing and drawing in the firelight The light from the fire flickered on the bamboo wall As if time was stretched Swinging between the past and the future The fate of the Akha people Maybe it’s like the fire in this fire Not too strong Can’t extinguish It must continue to burn weakly In order to make this group Continue in the cracks between wind and rain and the times The future belongs to those Those who are still trying to light the fire Long video production is not easy Welcome to like, collect and forward Our next video will be more exciting
