  • 22 FEBRUARY 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND:  Traffic on Phaya Thai at Thanon Rama I (Thanon is the Thai word for Street). Bangkok is notorious for gridlock and traffic jams. It has only 80 kilometers (less than 50 miles) of light rail mass transit, Seoul, South Korea, by comparison, has 280 kilometers of commuter light rail. Bangkok's traffic problems have been worsened by the government's "first car" initiative which subsidized the purchase of cars for families that previously couldn't afford one. That progam alone put more than one million new cars on the roads countrywide.    PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ

  • 12 MARCH 2013 - ALONG HIGHWAY 13, LAOS:  A Chinese passenger bus drives south on Highway 13 in rural Laos towards Luang Prabang. The paving of Highway 13 from Vientiane to near the Chinese border has changed the way of life in rural Laos. Villagers near Luang Prabang used to have to take unreliable boats that took three hours round trip to get from the homes to the tourist center of Luang Prabang, now they take a 40 minute round trip bus ride. North of Luang Prabang, paving the highway has been an opportunity for China to use Laos as a transshipping point. Chinese merchandise now goes through Laos to Thailand where it's put on Thai trains and taken to the deep water port east of Bangkok. The Chinese have also expanded their economic empire into Laos. Chinese hotels and businesses are common in northern Laos and in some cities, like Oudomxay, are now up to 40% percent. As the roads are paved, more people move away from their traditional homes in the mountains of Laos and crowd the side of the road living off tourists' and truck drivers.    PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
