Abstract

The Lahu at Um Yom Village are somewhat interested in and see the benefits of education, but their main excuses for not sending their children to other schools besides their village school are that other schools are far away and that there will be no one to look after the houses while the parents are out at work. They prefer to attend a village school to other schools outside the village, so the village school was constructed. However, the village school is sometimes abandoned due to a lack of efficient teachers. Additionally, teachers are not permanently stationed at the school because the area is deemed dangerous due to terrorists. Government officials try to convince Lahu children to attend other schools through their village leaders, but so far persuasion has not been effective. It is suggested from the research findings that state officers should create trust with the ethnic group by participating in village activities and devoting more time teaching children. They should learn more about the ethnic culture and beliefs in order to promote education that is in line with their beliefs. They should study the Lahu language for better communication, access and mutual understanding. More importantly, they should take the utmost care about personal financial debts because they may erode personal trust between them and the villagers.
