Searching for Gold

A local person in Khamti finding gold in the stream

This is how the local Naga people find gold in the stream and valley which is the most incredible way of making money base on their traditional knowledge. This knowledge of finding gold has long been widely  applied by the people living in the northern part of Burma. However, no one knows how and when this tradition started. This tactic is only designed to earn extra money just enough to support the family in daily basic and basically the local people do this work as their second option for making money after the traditional cultivation work called "Taung Ya"
