Thailand: Islanders boats, Ko Sukorn, Trang Province. Ko Sukorn is home to around 2,500 Thai Muslims, mainly fishing families, but also farmers growing coconuts, rice and rubber in the island’s fertile interior. Trang province was dependent on tin mining until the first rubber seedlings were brought into Thailand around 1901 – part of a long journey from South America via the neighbouring Malay States. Rubber, palm oil and fishing are the mainstays of the province's economy. Tourism is making an increasing impact as Trang’s Andaman Coast and islands are increasingly developed.
