Lunch time--a treat from Du Pla Ya dormitory's sponsors Women with a Mission. 60 children live at this dormitory.

The refugee camp rations only cover breakfast and dinner. There are small restaurants in the sprawling camp-cum-town, but of course only those who can afford to pay extra for lunch do so.

Announcement on Thai-Burma Border Consortium's website of the recent fire at this refugee camp. For an update on the rebuilding progress, click here.
