Part 3 CHATTING WITH A GIRL
The next day the travellers see a girl (G)
walking along the road. Wang Kun spea
ks to her.
WK: Hello!
G: Hello! Are you travellers?
WK: Yes. We’re travelling along the
Mekong River. We’ve been all t
hrough China and now we’re go
ing to follow the river through L
aos.
G: I’m Laotian. The Mekong’s our
most important river. Did you know
that it appears on our national flag.
WK: Really?
G: Yes. We use the river for washing,
fishing and transporting things
around the country.
We’d be lost without it. It’s
better than a road.
WK: Well, no wonder I’ve seen boats
going up and down- they’re
transporting goods and people.
G: Yeah. We call it “the sea of Laos”
although we are not near the sea. It’s
because the water is as useful to us as
the sea.
WK: How interesting! In Tibet the
river’s called “The water of the
rocks”. Both names tell us a lot
about the river, don’t they?
WK: Wow! Can we sleep by the river?
G: Yes, of course you can. There are
many small villages along the river.
You can stay there if you wish.
WK: Thanks a lot.
