they are from the village of trunyan (30mins by boat on the lake)...our guide told about this and a couple of weeks ago when we went down for a drive along the lakes shores, someone did offer to take us into the trunyan village.
Apparently they dont take a liking to outsiders really well, so you are lucky to visit it. I have also seen this place on the national geographic channel. :)
Our driver also mentioned to us, that most of the people you might see at traffic lights, especially the little kids but adults too, are from that village, they have apparently a reputation for being lazy and not wanting to "work" a real job, other than something in their own village.
