Why would you want to apply Marxist-Leninist theory to your daily life in 2007? Most of you would not even be able to read Marx or Lenin if you were given a book and even if you could you would find revolutionary social theory to be completely irrelevant to your life. It is not about 'working hard'. Anti-marxists work hard, thats why they won! It is a bizarre fluke of history that a small isolated southeast asian country has banners up calling for people to follow the outdated and almost universally rejected philosophy of a 19th Century German and an early Twentieth Century Russian. Nobody in Laos knows anything about these two men. They just follow what the leaders tell them to. Oh kaak maak please let me suck your.....
Just look at former Soviet union ..right now Marxist Lenin it's working or not ! do your home work ppl .....
Just also look at China ..right now Marxist Lenin it's working or not ! do your home work ppl .....
Thanks to Marxism-Leninism people around to world could gain independant from imperialists, and Laos could gain from independant from French was no exception. That's the fact.

Tell me what that had to do with Marxist-Leninist theory? Please, come on, tell me? You don't know. A fascist, a capitalist, and an anarchist can all fight for independence from colonialism. This has nothing to do with Marxist thought. Marx never even mentioned the colonial struggle, nor did Lenin. They were writing about the 'working class' and its ability to transform 'capitalism'. Laos still does not have either a large 'working class' or a strong capitalist economy, so it independence from colonialism has absolutely nothing to do with Marxist Leninist doctrine. Stop being a puppet and repeating the words of your leaders like a parrot.

Please provide us the examples what country could gain an independent without Marxism-Lenism belief people. Don't just talk nonesense!
How we apply Marxist Lenin theory to our daily life ? I keep dreaming about how much better my next life will be and have no worry about how much dirt poor I am today. No country in this world has practiced or is practicing this theory in its true form - they only twist this theory in such a way so that they can benefit and to have advantage to themselves. In other word, these phonies are very confused about what they were taught and are used by their master like the hunting dogs. China ? you kidding me... ask them how many rich capitalists do they have now ? oopps, I meant how many rich marxists-leninists.
I must say time after time I watch documents done by BBC or Western countries, it always shows that it was Soviet Union which helped under dogs countries around the world to kick colonists out of their countries from Africa to Asia. We can ague many times about this issue but because history already told us in the way as it happened, not much we can do now but accept it.
It was Soviet Unions which helped under dogs countries not rich capitalist american....You can verify this information by youself, DVD about these documents are on sale everywhere from World War 1 to 2 and all kind of conflicts including South East Asia war....etc
Funny enough country like Australia during DEPRESSION also wanted to become a Socialist State...check for youself whether is true or not about this information...

During crisis situation, socialism or dictatorship like governing form of government is the best way to go IMO. With open free and democratic society everything has to be discussed analyzed, approved before it can be implemented. That can take a long long time. It is not like that with socialism or dictatorship. A small group of people or a person make a decision and BAM! you go do it. No red tape and nothing to slow it down.
When you want people to prosper and the country to prosper widespread Capitalism is the way to go. Example Cuba and North Korea vs Laos, Vietnam , and China. Huge difference. Cuba and North Korea economy stagnate. For 50 years they are like that. Within 15 years, Laos, Vietnam, and China became a booming market. Their citizens are living better. Who knows if they continue this way for another 15-20 years Laos will be like Japan. LOL! ok not exactly.
IMO = In My Opinion

Don't try to apply Marxis - Leninism to Laos. They don't work the way you think they are supposed to do. Look at Russia, the birth place of Marxism - Leninism, today. The Russians don't even believe in Marxism - Leninism at all.

It is not 'nonesense'. I can give you one very good example (that I'm sure you will disagree with because you have been brain washed):
LAOS: the first movement for independence was not a Marxist-Leninist movement, it was a movement begun by Prince Phetsarath who was a colonial bureaucrat and was afraid that Vietnamese immigration under the French Indochinese system would cover all of Laos. He rebelled against the return of the French after they were expelled by the Japanese during World War Two by setting up the Lao Issarra government, which DID NOT follow Marxist-Leninist doctrine at that time. Only much later when it was taken over by the Indochina Communist Party, did the Lao Isarra movement begin to follow this doctrine. It was originally a NATIONALIST movement. Phetsarath did not want to change the system to single-party socialism, he just wanted NATIONAL independence.
It is absurd and scary that you cannot believe that people are unable to gain independence without a doctrine that you don't understand yourself.

Checked, untrue, sorry mate, you need new information. The Soviet Union was just another colonizer. It is just that now the Soviet Union has collapsed, its former colonies are independent. And Australia had a very small Socialist movement even at the height of the depression. You watch too many pseudo-documentaries on satellite TV.
If you ask how to apply Marxist to our daily life, well each year the survey about country which provided good services to its citizen in broaded way, we saw small countries in Europe which were on the top of the list....countries like Findland rank number 1 in the World not USA....following Sweden etc, and Findland and Sweden always stated that they run their country like socialism.
Australia has new government, Labor government, this government also has one policy you can see a little bit like socialism too, the previous Liberal government of australian introduced WORK JOINT which eliminated many rights of a worker, no union intertere when a worker was sacked....no union protection which good in a way, if a person got sack for no reason Union will interfere....but under previous government a worker did not have that right anymore....a worker could be sacked anytime just like that. But Labor government said that they are going to abolish WORK JOINT which is not good for a worker...so you can see Union looks after workers is a kind of Marxist applies to daily life I you like.
Again small states in Europe which said that they ran their countries with mix bags they used good policy of socialism plus good policy of capitalism and ranked number 1 in the world ( FINLAND, is the name of the country ) not USA.
Those so called socialist parties in power wherever they may be, like Australia, Finland or Sweden (with the monarchy)...etc are running their countries within the frame work of a democracy. They were elected by popular votes and they can be voted out if they screw up the countries. One thing for sure, they are not DICTATORs like the one party that you are worshipping now. Come on, open up your eyes. ຫນ້າເບື່ອ....
For the person above who appeared to be angry with Lao....if Lao has one party so what? what does it matter with you? you want to be Lao's president...what do you do? Open the eyes then what?
