| Abstract |
|
There is much existing evidence to indicate that the Hmong in the North of Thailand (Siam) migrated from Laos, Chiang Khong and Luang Phrabang in the late nineteenth century and that the Hmong in these areas came from the South of China. This is because before that time there were fights, invasions, famine conditions and outbreaks of disease.
