Taxia Village, Puzhai Town, Fengshun County, Meizhou, Guangdong Province is the ancestral home of former Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra and former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra. At the same time, it is also the ancestral home of three generals, namely, the former commander-in-chief of Thailand's armed forces, the air force general, the vice president of Thailand Airlines, Bavi Sinava and the Thai army general Utai Sinava. As a result, Taxia village has the reputation of "three generals coming out of this village", and this small village with a history of more than 600 years has attracted much attention.
Taxia Village is 10 km away from Fengshun County. The village is surrounded by mountains and waters, and now lives more than 3,000 people, just across the water from Tangnan Town, the southernmost tip of Fengshun County. Entering the village, new buildings sprang up, and laughter came from time to time. A modern new rural life in which people live and work in peace and contentment is presented.
The topography of Taxia Village is that Ma and Hu mountains are opposite. The village is surrounded by mountains in the east, south and north, forming a small basin with natural barriers. Qiu Mingqing, secretary of the Party branch of Taxia Village, told the reporter: "The hills in the south of Taxia Village have been developed into hundreds of acres of contiguous sugarcane production bases, and the hills and hills connecting Maoyuan Jianqiao Village in the west have been built to accommodate nearly 1,000 workers. The scattered mountains and Buddhist robes at the foot of Tian Yang in the east are planned as tourist attractions. "
Behind the "screen" where the peaks of Taxia Village overlap, there is a mountain range for dozens of miles. The mountain extends northward from Longwei and Puzhai Longshen in Jiedong County to the famous Buddhist cassock in the east of Taxia Village, just like a dragon. There are also hills scattered in the fields, such as Laoye Mountain, Beauty Flower Festival, Lion Mountain, Niu Ling and Snake Mountain, as well as strange mountains and rocks such as Laoxiange, Baimushi, Philosopher's Stone and Immortal Footprint Stone. These natural works that condense aura have been left with many magical legends by predecessors. Qiu Daduan, a 70-year-old villager in Taxia Village, said, "There has always been a saying that the officers and men who came from afar in ancient times saw the terrain like' Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger' and carefully left the saddle, got off the sedan chair and walked down the village."
Behind Taxia Village, there is another Taxia River, which flows westward. It is the origin of the villagers in Taxia village who went to Nanyang by red-headed boat in Ming and Qing Dynasties. They flow into the North River through Longchexi, Tangnan Town, Fengshun, and go straight to Rongjiang and Shantou in Jieyang to enter the sea. "Overseas Chinese in Taxia Village all started from Taxia Creek behind the village, stepped into a foreign country and started a new life in other places. At that time, Yingla's great-grandfather Qiu Chunsheng boarded the boat from Taxiaxi and arrived in Thailand to make a living. " Qiu Daduan said.
"Perhaps it is the good feng shui of" Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger "in Taxia Village, or the people in Taxia Village have inherited the fine tradition of respecting teachers and attaching importance to education and being hardworking. Many overseas Chinese, including Singapore and Thailand, who came out of Taxia Village, a Hakka mountain village, are outstanding. The most influential ones are Thai Prime Minister Yingluck and former Prime Minister. " Qiu Mingqing, secretary of the Party branch of Taxia Village, said, "Yingla's three cousins, the commander-in-chief of Thailand's Qianhai, Land and Air Forces, Chaiyeshi Sinava, Thai Air Force Admiral Bavi Sinava and Thai Army Admiral Utai Sinava are also sitting in the position of generals."
