The aims of this study on "Migrant Children in Especially Difficult Circumstances in Thailand" were:
* to provide readers with the most up to date and complete status of migrant children in Thailand
* to identify and analyse the difficult circumstances which are confronting these children
* to develop some indicators to illustrate the conditions in which the migrant children are suffering

The Pa-O are one of the ethnic minorities of Burma. They live primarily in the Taunggyi area of southwestern Shan State. A smaller number live in the Thaton area of Mon State in Lower Burma. The Pa-O in the Thaton area have become "Burmanized" -- like their neighbors the Mon and Karen, they have adopted Burmese language, dress and customs. The Pa-O in southwestern Shan State have learned to speak Shan, but have maintained their own distinct language and customs, including their traditional dark blue or black dress.
