a living but we didn't. like it is up to. the province of tongue who are as one of the largest bamboo forests in southeast asia. in just 3 years bamboo storms can grow up to 8 metres tall. and in my field the lamb. salad i've done. in the galley and done. that myself. until night means i can gallon out. to line in. a later. bottle. they carry the bamboo for more than a kilometer. the mom and dad go they are. probably on the my way. up the you are going to go do what you do so all of

that is. for. the labor as just over a dollar a day cutting and transporting the bamboo. but the bravest among them can make 10 times that much transporting the goods. on. the. body id. go with the old me to a boat. if i need. to

i don't little know about. fun fun to. do and a lot more than a thaw the news that voice. in the locked out of. some why are not the. we'll keep. in the thought of. a good draft must be flexible and narrow to offer

a minimum resistance to the current. the raft will be nearly 50 meters long. that can either. be don't move. no poor. no poor movie comes out. you got a monkey. that you mean you mean lassie out of. the captions no well the challenge that awaits them. i don't need no money we handle the like such a way to get me on the piano a lot in. india by the name of the indian be indian

i'm hungry. the time is the hold the bamboo slowly loosened every time the raft hit some rocks . the raft risks breaking up. the hook . thank . you both i stood you level old boy old me would be on me helping all my own

but i'm a bit weak you'll be on the ground and can go if they go south warning me that you'll be on the details to help when you all can. go. you know. we have you know. the men know well the dangers of the long river. up ahead the cave ghost passage will test. thank the legendary mekong river old mother of waters is vietnam's main waterway. it nourishes the 6 countries through which it flows including laos which borders vietnam. after travelling 5000 kilometers from

its source in the himalayas this is where the river vent 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. are for me and before that you're right one mile before. oh it's very important card for proper care come get you if you are going to your didn't call our number but not god what if. some new knowing is 52. he says it's no coincidence he's never had an accident in 40 years. oh he got shot don't know if you need one but pull back outside that about what would be right out by a guy that had set up to be why we're here it would be at that by what those would do what. the full stretch over

nearly 10 kilometers. allow call this region see found don't the full 1000 on. land just south from the fulls and countless waterways of the mekong. this is a familiar hunting ground for. getting there takes good balance and steady nerves.

at work but on. the other. side. what's that about yeah yeah. i. like the elf. but. it was my last. flight and i. fish worried upstream. they eventually become trapped and will pull this further down the river. set up on it but it.

oh. yeah casts his net relentlessly and 90. 5. 0 will fit. any might.

not get out and on that i thought it was not unlike if you want them back. i several families share the dangers of the rapids. each has it's a fishing take i

hope. noya and his colleagues catch up to 100 kilos pedantic using a remarkable method. i. love it but not about. what i. feel like. the current pushes the fish into their ingenious wooden ramps all they have to do is pick the fish out of the woods.

the mekong is home to 200 different species of fish eye the largest of which are cool with a trap that must be set in the middle of the rapids i. was told. they got caught up about how hot hot. hot hot hot this. live

. the the. good life let us in on the good and i'm good and i'm look what i did i. want to get rid of somebody i don't want. to look i'm not. going to head up the queue. one of you will. run but they had to kill the boy i don't think either of you know

anything at all about it below is it up i said it was. good no. good would i lay it all by say he didn't want their. fears he got it but i. each year too will 3 fishermen i'll take up the make all. the law abiding want to me. he said do you know you're in this and i'm a cop. i don't. need a dollar. by law. abiding by law like a guy. oh my god i'd go but. slowly the fish are disappearing. pesticides as well as a series of dams

a largely to blame. in vietnam on the long river the bamboo raft is in smooth the world has the men take advantage of the calm to reinforce it. cuts as usually belong to the moment ethnic group. allies of the french and then the americans in the 2 wars that have shaken vietnam the hmong are still discriminated against. it's hard work for some of the lowest wages for you and me talk and when we when. that don't mean that only a battle going to look like i don't need it yet and that. you're not going to do a lot of what you want but don't go to congress i'm told that my local one to one that i'm going to go by you will know me.

as the watch has become agitated the raft scene begins its mad rush. bought one. for. turning a run nearly 50 meters long it's. no easy task. in the distance lies the infamous ghost cave one of the most feared turns in the river .

this time the ghost was leaning. on their last trip the raft was ranked against the wall. and its bamboo cargoes scattered into the river.

one song the song. 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 to. the one i know like you have to be i guess though i don't know if i can lead. you down to our day though i didn't know you. back on land the bamboo must travel another 30 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 car. been mounted him in the night out back then having been flooded accurately when manatee how often are you name enough i need a hand with you but you know that car body in the morgue and i share my body like you knew i wouldn't go in the car. seat i mean i made it a beacon to do not go in the way that i knew what. a deal is struck but for twice the price of $1.00 slip or wrong turn and van leak could be crushed under his vehicle.

santa going to highland joe pa time i decide that i know what i need to do and now when i'm going to fall out will be all blue alloted only thing that has all the facts i love off the top of the i'm a little young to help i always had only hope my money with love i hope all but in the bountiful was a joy we hope i can easily monday night i wind up and i want to have a much. needed a little my love all to fall out. of . the vehicle plug. along at the speed of an office car.

after a 5 hour as the bamboo finally reaches the processing plant. trunks 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 gin. scene consumers across vietnam will put it to a variety of uses on the hard work of harvesting and transporting it will begin again.
