Tribe Camp
The upside of the Sook Jai tribe camp was that their water source was located very close to the camp. The downside was that the tribe had to work to build a shelter to keep them dry, which the tribe struggled to accomplish. It was for this reason that the Sook Jai camp was judged as the "lesser" of the two tribe camps, and the Sook Jai tribe members eventually went to live at the opposing Chuay Gahn tribe's beach.
