Description :The term MIAO is a very ancient Chinese misleading pseudo-ethnic categorisation, what we call theHMONG in western languages, a term recognised bycolonial French Indochina. Miao became a genericterm which does not reveal the diversity of 38subgroups or 9 million people, mostly in SouthernChina Guizhou Province.

China having moved towards the market economy,a large number of minority regions have marketeda commodity available only to them: their ethnicityitself. Ethnic tourism has developed in a big wayin China since the 1990s for Chinese and foreigntourists, and is often promoted as the way to createincome in those areas for development. I usuallystay away from ethnotouristic shows and try toget music which is not a commodity! I was basedin Dali. Yunnan. China between 2006 and 2013.
