01 MARCH 2014 - MAE SOT, TAK, THAILAND: A layperson fans Burmese Buddhist monks eating in a temple in a Burmese community in the forest a few kilometers north of Mae Sot. Mae Sot, on the Thai-Myanmer (Burma) border, has a very large population of Burmese migrants. Some are refugees who left Myanmar to escape civil unrest and political persecution, others are "economic refugees" who came to Thailand looking for work and better opportunities. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
