Ban Hin Taek
Ban Hin Taek or Baan Hin Taek ((タイ語:บ้านหินแตก); , lit. "The Village of Broken Stone") now renamed Ban Therd Thai ((タイ語:บ้านเทอดไทย); , lit. “Village to Honour Thailand”),〔Ban Therd Thai is also known as: Baan Therd Thai, Ban Terd Thai, Baan Terd Thai, Ban Thoet Thai, Baan Thoet Thai, Ban Theuat Thai, Baan Theuat Thai, Ban Thoed Thai and Baan Thoed Thai. The reason for such numerous spellings is attributed to the phonetic translation of the name into English.〕 is a village found in the Chiang Rai area in the northern part of Thailand. This village, composed mainly of Akha people, has had a very vivid history involving the notorious drug leader known as Khun Sa. Despite being called Ban Therd Thai, the village will be referred to as Ban Hin Taek which is the name the villagers refer to when talking about their village.〔Donald Wilson and David Henley, “Beyond Ban Hin Taek,” Discover Thailand, 1.〕
== Origins and Directions ==
Ban Hin Taek is more specifically located beyond Doi Mae Salong in Northern Thailand. It is just south of the Thai-Burma border located in the Golden Triangle. In order to reach Ban Hin Taek, one must take the road which starts at Bap Basang on Route 110 between Chiang Rai and Mae Sai. A road by the name of Route 1130 goes west into the mountains where its final destination is Doi Mae Salong. The road eventually becomes Route 1234, a surfaced road.〔(“Doi Tung – The Flag Mountains,” ) Welcome to Chiangmai and Chiangrai.〕 If you go further along this road, you will come across a dirt road going north towards the Burmese border. This is the road that will take you to Ban Hin Taek.
Ban Hin Taek is a village nestled in a valley which is “like a finger pointing” into the Shan State. It is surrounded by hills that have been scarred by slash-and-burn agriculture. From Ban Hin Taek you can see the summit of Doi Tung, a mountain approximately 1322 metres high.
Ban Hin Taek is not as small a village as one would think. Its inhabitants have expanded the village along a road for more than 3 kilometres towards the Burmese border.〔Donald Wilson and David Henley, “Beyond Ban Hin Taek,” Discover Thailand, 2.〕 It has become quite prosperous over the years mainly because of agricultural trade, but also because of the drug trade that existed for some time in Ban Hin Taek.
