The most independent and agressive of tribes.
The Hmong are characterised by a desire to be left alone,
to be independent.
They will fight for space, for their future
if they think it is threatened. :unsure:
In Thailand they sided with the communists
because they were promised freedom; :wavecry:
in Laos they sided with the anti-communist forces because
communism threatened their culture.
They are the most nomadic of the tribes,
villages splitting and migrating to new areas to gain independence.
Migrants to the USA have continued this mobility
constantly moving to seek out new opportunities.
Wherever they are, they keep their traditions
and as with all the other groups the most important is the New Year
ceremony held at the end of the agricultural cycle,
which usually coincides with the Christian Christmas
or the new calendar year.

Unfortunately, he is not. If he is doing a good job he could've
helped all the hmong people in Thailand/Laos.
