THE BADJAO PEOPLE The Badjao people are a minority, often despised by their already-poor "superiors." Their homelands have been taken from them, and their culture is slipping away. Originally, they were peaceful sea-faring people living on the Sulu Islands, who have become both war and economic refugees. They are war refugees, because over the years, they have been caught in the violent crossfire between Muslim separatists and the Christian-backed government in Manila. Economically, they have been victims of over fishing by other groups using everything from dynamite to high-tech fishing trawlers. Now, they are holed up in a seaside slum in Bawing, near General Santos.

A dose of reality - Siem Reap may have had great nightlife and gorgeous temples but there is a harsher side. This landmine museum was set up by a guy who had been forced to plant mines by the Khymer Rouge when he was only five years old. He now spends all his time removing the mines with little more than a stick. He also has around 20 children living with him, all of which have been injured by mines.
