I have a new job for the next six months. I’m the new People Group Assessment Coordinator for my organization. I’ll be overseeing comprehensive surveys of several people groups that live in the far corners of the country. I’ll be going to the Khorat plateau in the N.E. near the Laos border, to the mountains near the country’s center, and then all the way down to the coast (on the Andaman Sea side) on the southern isthmus. The language groups are just as varied. Austronesian groups in the South, Sino-Tibetian groups in the central part, Mon-Khmer and Thai groups in the N.E.
