Tubpojntxoog,
Hais txog kev pov pob, peb haiv Hmoob twb kawm thiab "adopt" thaum peb tseem nyob Suav teb os nawb (Yunnan/Hunnan and Guizchou, 18th century, to be exact) --- thaum tseem nrog Hmab nrog Sua nyob ua ke, nkaum thiab khiav Suav kev yuam. Ces thaum peb haiv Hmoob khiav Suav teb, late 18th century to 19th century, los rau Los Tsuas; cov teb chaws lid Nyablaj, Nplog, Thaib, thiab YasMab ces peb cia lid pov pob los lawm xwb los txog nej hnub nod. Cov Hmoob-Suav ua tseem nyob teb chaws Suav, lawd tsis pov pob vim lawd tsis yog cov kwv tij nrog peb khiav tsov rog. Lawd yog cov poob thiab nyob tom qab, raug ua Suav tus mej zeej. Koj nkag siab lawm lod?
Hais txog Hmoob lub neej, los sis kev vam meej yav pem suab. Quite honestly, there are already way way too many interest groups, orgs, individuals, and visionaries since Hmong's arrival in the States trying desperately to cement their strangle hold on its actualization. Qhov "problem" vim lis cas peb haiv Hmoob pheej tsis vam meej los sis pheej "stagnate and stall" - nej sawv daws yeej paub zoo lawm - Hmong just have too many wanna-be. Nyias tsuas kham nyias thiab kuv pheej khib koj, koj pheej khib kuv. How is this going to promote anything except chaos and internal conflicts, bickering, and fighting. Nej sawv daws yeej paub zoo lawm; ie. Hmoob lub Peb Caug -- within a single city, there are and can be up to 2-3 New Years celebration, like in Fresno and the Twin Cities. Qhov nod yog qhov peb haiv Hmoob yuam kev LOJ tshaj plaws, ces thiab tsis muaj hnub los sis kev vam meej rau peb suab. We, the Hmong, have too many wanna-be leaders, interest groups, visionaries, and nowadays even woman activists (feminism) - ces peb rav qab ua peb tus yeeb ncuab lawm xwb.
Hais txog kev tshawb fawb, qhov twg los zoo tag nrho: culture, history, folklore, arts etc.. Qhov "problem" kuv pom, is that again, peb cov "scholars/professors" nod tsis sib koom tes - nyias qhuas nyias yog tus "expert" lawm xwb. And more times than not, they are only regurgitating previous scholars' works, research, and publication. See the problem. Tsis muaj ib tug uas yog "original works" lid --- only reproduction.
Hais txog tej nod mad hais tsis txawj tag vim niaj hnub nod, peb haiv Hmoob, nyias NTSE nyias dhau heev lid lawm, even including cov nyob lwm lub ntuj lub teb; Laos, Thailand, and China etc..
