河道
錫河源自於碧差汶山脈，向東流經依善地區的猜也奔府、坤敬府，以及瑪哈沙拉堪府。之後於黎逸府轉向南流，流經益梭通府，並於四色菊府干他拉隆縣匯入蒙河，錫河年流量約9.3立方公里（2.2立方英里）[2]。
1718年，占巴塞王國建立後，諾卡薩王派出3,000人從湄公河東岸移居西岸，並在錫河流域建立了第一個佬族聚落，並於今天的黎逸府金地縣建立了第一個佬族的勐[3]。

Abstract: This paper aims to examine the concept of civil society in the rural communities in the Chi River, Northeast Thailand. It focuses on the questions of what civil society means in the Thai rural context, what factors make civil society proactive and how civil society is activated. By using participatory action research (PAR) as the main methodology to answer the inquiries. The paper addresses the new term of 『grounded civil society』 which was created through the research process in two case studies. The research determines that two elements activated grounded civil society are from outside and inside factors. The outside factors included the negative effect of government development projects and the intervention of the participatory action research, which stimulate local people to engage in civil society. The inside factors are the poor economic conditions of the villagers and the social capital existing in the communities. The paper concludes with an analysis of the causal links between social capital and civil society which claims that social capital facilitated the creation of civil society.
