i am. i am. thank god. i am. i am. i am. there are two staples to vietnamese life rice and bamboo for its many uses. thank you. don't we go now

the end of my field the lamb. had done. that myself. until now i mean by the gallon. to line economy in a later. model. they carry the bam boom for more than a kilometer. probably the my way. up the you know video you. pull. the laborers on just over a dollar

a day cutting and transporting the bamboo. but the bravest among them can make ten times that much transporting the goods. you don't need. your own little.

more fun to. do and a lot more than a thaw the news the door. and locked out of. them why are not the same order we'll keep doing them we're told by a monument here in the top. a good draft must be flexible and narrow to offer a minimum resistance to the current. the mood of. the ruffed will be nearly fifty meters long. back and. redo new. folks who are. no poor me become. who got monkey. that mean human life.

the captains know well the challenge that awaits them. i don't need all we need money you know like such a way to get the. india done by the name of the india indian which we are bombing. they've been right to follow it up right now right now my dear wife you know. thirty kilometers lie ahead and five hours of being tossed about by the river.

you. guys. i. know only doing one thing i. thought i might like. the time is the hold the bamboo are slowly loosened every time the raft hits some rocks. the raft risks breaking up.

you know you most good you love oh oh oh oh oh me will be helping all my all but i'm a big boy over the week you'll be island. and then you can go there you go. warning you that you'll be on the beach you know the hope when you all have. to hope you know that ok i know. the men know well the dangers of the long river. up ahead

the cave ghost passage will test. thank the legendary mekong river oh mother of forces is vietnam's main waterway. it nourishes the six countries through which it flows including laos which borders vietnam. after travelling five thousand kilometers from its source in the himalayas this is where the river sits right. over time it's carved out the cone fulls one of the widest waterfalls in the world . yet allow fisherman jump into the water without fear. for me before they're right when my book or no oh

a credit card and card with the bump up your hair and come get you if you are going to your didn't call our number but not god what if the sun yang is fifty two. he says it's no coincidence he's never had an accident in forty years. oh he got shot don't know if you need one would hope but outside that come up what bob would we have to have a guy that has that to be why we need it one boy be at that by what those would do what. the full stretch over navy ten kilometers. allow call this region see found don't the full thousand on.

land jumps out from the foals and countless waterways of the mekong. this is a familiar hunting ground for. getting there takes good balance and steady nerves. feel at work but on. the other. side it.

was not yet if. my. son might feel. but. if i want them in my life. that's what i want. to have. fish worried upstream. they eventually become trapped and will pulls further down the river. but the old. set up and i think what i like it that you know i'm old. son casts his net relentlessly to nine zero. zero. zero zero five zero zero zero zero they. follow it all the

way. and let me go my way and i am. i. the one. i i. i i. i i am i. will not get that get me going on that got a lot of them and not

a lot of men like you much you want them back why. why . i several families share the dangers of the rapids. each has its own fishing take. no. noise and his colleagues catch up to one hundred kilos pudding using a remarkable method. but it was not about. what i.

feel but i. knew. the current pushes the fish into their ingenious wooden ramps all they have to do is pick the fish out of the water. the mekong is home to two hundred different species of fish the largest of which are cool with a trap that must be set in the middle of the rapids. i was told thank you for taking the time not like about that ha ha ha.

ha ha ha ha ha ha this time. a hit. oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh i have a good

. one you can hear a lot of us and i'm going to the hood and i'm no good and i'm what put up with. some ways we have of somebody. who was someone who was not on one hand the sahara. one but the mule. was fun but they had to kill it to follow the leader and you know what if you know all about it below is a lot i said it was a good no. good mother lay it all by saying he knew what there. has to be a lot of what i. each year too will three fishermen taken by the make all.

the law abiding don't want to marry. their mom i mean argument i don't use it do you know you're in this and i'm a hot mama. i don't mean you want me to doll. we. lose kind of my life. but i do a lot i feel like. oh my god i feel but you don't know how. slowly the fish are disappearing. pesticides as well as a series of dams the largely to blame. in vietnam on the long river the bamboo raft as in smooth the waters the men take advantage of the calm to reinforce it. bamboo cuts as usually belong to the moment ethnic group. allies of the french and then the

americans in the two wars that have shaken vietnam the hmong are still discriminated against. it's hard work for some of the lowest wages for your heart and then when we go home where we were then the i mean that's only going to look like part of it war and that will. be you're not going to do it he was doing good but don't go there because i'm told that no one to work that i'm going to go by normally. as the watch has become agitated the raft seeing begins its mad rush. on.

a love song bought one. for. two days for. turning a rough nearly fifty metres long it's. no easy task. in the distance lies the infamous ghost cave one of the most feared terms in the river .

this time the ghost was leaning. on the last trip the raft was ranked against the war. and its bamboo cargo scattered into the rhythm. one song the song river a motor boat comes to help. the river bank marks the end of the trip. everybody had. given up on and again.

and again by one young. now go on to what i want to get though i don't know if. i'm going to be a day you doubt it turned out i don't i didn't know you had. back on land the bamboo must travel another thirty kilometers through rain and mud before reaching the processing plant. the jungle roads are slippery and the driver than lead can only take a portion of the goods. being parked around hungry been planted him in the night out man can have been what it accurately and been man of the hope and i

and him enough i mean they handed me a bite you know i get caught by the in the market i share my body like you knew i wouldn't go and you got me beat i mean a bit of a beacon you do not go and you know what i know what. you think you can get a deal is struck but for twice the price of one slip pull wrong turn and vine lead could be crushed under his vehicle. and yet no santa going to harlem and joe bottom line is i don't know what i need to do now when i'm going to the lot will be all new a lot don't you know that all the fucking night i was not a total doctor because i'm a little young to have you thought i was always had only took my money you know we love i hope all but in the bountiful was

a toy we hold michael it's really my no no i don't mind i hope and i want to have him up. when i meet him to hold out hope when i call to roll out. the baby. the vehicle plug. along at the speed of an ox gone. from. the phone. after five hours the bamboo finally reaches the processing plant. dirt tracks may well become a thing of the past in vienna. as one of the last communist countries to join the

free market the country is throwing. this bamboo is near the end of its journey. seen consumers across vietnam will put it to a variety of uses and the hard work of harvesting and transporting it will begin again. the sky what they should be no borders up here. only horizons. as an airline we don't believe in boundaries we believe in bringing people together the world's better that way. it is a right for all of us to go where we need to go to feel the things we want to feel

. to see the people we want to see. that's why we'll continue to fly the skies providing you with everything we can and treating everyone how they deserve to be treated we do this because we know that travel goes beyond borders and prejudice all the travel teaches compassion the travel is a necessity. the travel is a right. remember that this world is a ball of ours to explore. and it's a strange thing for us to be apart. cats are always going places together.

right. from the showings of the red sea storage of more tactical and home management and major goals but enjoy this team of change to the pics of the himalayas where water conservation looks like this. solutions to save the world's most precious resource and the next episode of act right we'll look at what is being done to stem the what's prices. at this time of al-jazeera. this is al-jazeera.
