In Chiang Mai, there are Christians who are in business, NGOs, education and government. The world is so global that many of us "younger" crowd find opportunities through these channels rather than fundraising through churches. In my opinion, we are far more effective as we have a legitimate reason to be here. I often wonder what the locals think when they ask a "traditional" missionary what they do and get a response such as "building relationships." I'd be suspicious as well. A business/NGO/teaching career gives us legitimacy right away with locals.
