24 APRIL 2014 - CHIANG SAEN, CHIANG RAI, THAILAND: A crewman on a Chinese cargo boat on the Mekong River pulls up the anchor as the boat, carrying a cargo of cars, Red Bull energy drink and passengers heads up the Mekong bound for Kunming in China. Chinese businesses play an increasingly important role in the Chiang Rai economy. Consumer goods made in China are shipped to Thailand while agricultural products made in Thailand are shipped to China. Large Chinese cargo boats ply the Mekong River as far south as Chiang Saen in the dry season and Chiang Khong when river levels go up in the rainy season. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
