From 1968 to 1982 Khao Kaw is the place where
you are not allowed to enter because it is very
dangerous because of the minefield. The mines were
placed in the ground by the foreign communists and
the Thai government collected the brave people to
fight the insurgents for more than ten years. Both
parties spent too much time and energy creating war.
Once the war finished the people built a monument to
honor those would had died fighting for justice.
