“Sakai Village The Sakai , an ancient nomad tribe whose existence was based on hunting and gathering, were experts on herbal plants and used darts for hunting.”

Sakai Village at Moo 3, Tambon Ban Rae, is about 80 kms. on the road to Betong. The Sakai , an ancient nomad tribe whose existence was based on hunting and gathering, were experts on herbal plants and used darts for hunting.Their dwellings were originally made of bamboo, with thatch roof. Recently, the Department of Social Work has developed the village by segregating the Sakai in one area and introduced rubber planting for their occupation. The Department also asked the Princess Mother for the naming of the group with the family name of Si Than To. At present, there are a few of the Sakai left at this village since the rest of the group has moved to other areas.
