If im not wrong they live near the border of Thailand and Vietnam now. In the old days local men were proud to marry them but the cruel of time change it all. Now they became models for tourist to make a living and I heard the tourist pay them good money too for pictures taking.

Padaung women, they add ring to their neck yearly to make it longer and beautiful.

    Actually it's a myth that the rings make their necks longer (or weaker). It's actually just an optical illusion.
