The time and atmostphere is right to talk about Laos people all over the world uniting. The time is right now. Laos is opening to a market economy and will need skill work force. Insteading of importing work force from other countries like Thailand and Vietnam. Laos government should start inviting the educated Laos decendent of the post war in Laos to return from USA, Canada, and so on.
Alot of educated young men and women, would love to come back to help train and educated the Laos work force. They also would feel proud to help their own people. Laos helping Laos to me is alot satisfying and handouts from other countries.
These young and women just want to help and intern have some political change. There should be a compromise between the two parties.
I think it time to talk about real changes. Not that food and fashion is not important. The government of Laos should invited Laos university student abroad to visit Laos. Like exchange of ideas and dialoque.
I dont know if there is a program as exchange program at this time. The people with political influences should start this process right away. I'm sure there are people outside of Laos that have high ranking official in Laos as relatives.
Compromise must be made. Or Laos and Laos people will never be united for another 100 years.
We should start with Laos and who knows maybe or the TAI people will united under one country, just like the european union. Its a dream, but like Dr. King said, he too has a dream.
I'm all for the re-uniting the TAI people. Its seem like all countries a aligning themselves. Why cant all the TAI people, we are of the same race uniting.
I know Laos is a very proud people and country. We must give up something for the better of the race. The Siamese gave up their whole name to start up a new country called Thailand.
But first we must unite ourselves, the Laotion people.
Let UNITE and build our mother-land for our Children. Let compromise and talk our KNOW HOW to build LAOS as one nation as one community as the whole from every angle of around the world !!!
yeahh lets unite i agree with all of you, im jus waiting for my right moment to return and help my country, no matter where i fall on this earth my heart remains in Laos. i believe laos has the greatest potential we can do it theres no doubt about it in my mind, i totally agree with the person who said its better for laos to be helping laos instead of other countrys coming in and wanting something in return. laos is opening uppp and destiny will soon come!!!! Long live Laos and Long live my people.
I don't like to unite with the other Tai Peoples. I think it is impossible just like Laos can't unite with Esan people. They are not Lao no more. And they don't think they are Lao people.
Anyone ( I repeat Anyone) critize my mother-land ( Laos) about re-constructions and building our mother-land I will defend as best as I can or for life and death I will do that for my mother-land !!
Laos National Assembly, on May 12, approved the amended nationality law which, among other things, allows the children of Lao expatriates to become Lao nationals, provided one of their parents is a Lao citizen. Lao refugees who have kept in touch for seven years with the Lao embassy in the country they live in may also request their Lao nationality back.
Foreigners and persons of no nationality who have lived in Laos for 10 years may also apply for Lao citizenship if they renounce their own nationality.
The move to amend the nationality law is aimed at providing the opportunity for the Lao diaspora to return to Laos and participate in national development.

LAOS NEEDS ALL OF YOU PEOPLE 'S HELP,PLEASE RETURN TO YOUR HOME LAND AND HELP YOUR PEOPLE ,I AM A CHINESE , I WAS BORN IN LAOS ,I LOVE LAOS AND THE PEOPLE.20 YEARS IN CANADA ,NOW I AM BACK IN LAOS ONCE AGAIN ,"NO PLACE LIKE HOME"..
I don't see any problem with poeple going back to laos, sometime the flight always full. I just came back recently, much fun and love in laos. The G-verment is so nice to its poeple.
I did not know Lao government would change and allow Lao who had left Laos for 3 decades to go back to re-unite Lao and re-build our mother-land like this.
If I know I shoud continue my high level of my education. But I recieved something better than nothing. I'm sick and tired being second class in another country. Hoewever, at least I can contribute to help my mother-land. I will go Home once day not soon or later..but very near future !!
See you our country-men, women, cousins, sisters, younsters and our far children....
I think it time to forgive and moved on. Laos should build a road for full democracy, like the American or Canadian system. No Monarch and no communism. Just straight foward decomcratic.
Change our new flag and start agian. I think its the only option we Laos people have.
We build new temple and community in the United state and elsewhere. I think we should rather built the temple and community in Laos, that where it should belong.
I know its too early to talk about uniting all the TAI people. But at least we should have the communication started. It might fail, but at the same time, what is wrong with talking about it.

I don't believe so. Although a single party state creates the unlikeliness to change. Social democracy works, its mid way between Communism and Capitalism. Capitalist societies turn out to be greedy and individualistic. Neither is good, find a common ground.
I don't believe we need to change anything with how the government works, I believe the government will change in the response to the people.
And the Vat belongs where all the sangha is, not just in Laos.
What I've always wondered is this:
Communism is the extreme Left, extreme liberalism. Fascism is the extreme right, extreme conservitism.
How does the Communist party of any country end up becoming very secretive and conservative? Or maybe the correlation between Communism and extreme liberalism does not exist like how I thought it would?
I know alot of Laos blame Siamese for the destruction of Laos. But after carefull study of the history, i dont think that the case at all.
First there were the Khmer empire. Their empire crumble, and out of that came the Lanxang Kingdom. After the bickering between the Kings, Lanxang also fell. Lanxang for a long periond was under the control of the Siamese and Vietnmese. When a Kingdom is not strong enought to defend itself, others will seek to take it or destroyed it. It just not Southeast Asia history, but the world history.
Today its has not changed. Laos is still under the control of other countries. But we have the oppitunity to change. There are so many educated young children of Laos abraod, we must used the resource we have to rebuilt our country.
The young people of laos need a leader. One leader who truly believe in us and our people. A uniter and not a divider. A person who can understand both side of the issue. He is not a Communist nor he is a Monarch, just a hero and a motivater.
I went to visit Laos last year. I left Laos when i was 2 months old. So i dont know about the Communist regime or the Monarchy. Some of my relative in Laos are policement and government officials. I dont hate them and they dont hate me. They were glad to see my parents and vice versa. We spent two weeks touring and drinking Lao Beer.
I'm touch by what i see in Laos. The country is beautiful. Its calm and quite, the people are nice and the landscape is breath taking. Its was a big change from the life in North America as i know it.
I think we all know the history of SE Asia. Let's not get into a huge debate about what exactly happened. I cringe at the thought of this topic spiraling towards that discussion.
There is a person I talked to last week. He grew up in Laos and was sent to live in NYC on a permanent mission to the UN for Laos. He grew up in the states, received good education, and is now returning to Laos this summer. Honestly, I whole heartedly see this person as a good leader to bind Lao from all aspects of the world to advance the Lao people. Maybe he posted in this topic?
Considering the amount of war and destruction in Laos's history. The country i think is still very large. We should not get discourage by the land we lost. Or the people we lost. If we build they will come. Trust me they will. I know i will.

The process of finding a leader who will lead Laos people wont be easy i know. But we must find him. Lets have a conference in North American and elect the right person who can communicate with the Laos government and the world. And dont forget the Laotion people. Laotion people need to be inspired by some one. Hey that could be YOU!

Whatever the system. As long as the power goes to the people.
I put up this topic only for discussion. I dont know if Laos will unite its people. If we dont talk, than there will be no progress. We'll be like North Korea and South Korea forever. I dont want that. Do you?. Or maybe just forget it and go back to watch "ray rai look sao pa"
I think laos will be all speaking chinese very soon and it's not a surprise. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What wrong in speaking Chinese. I speak Laotion, English, and now i'm learning Thai.
Chinese will over take the US as the major economic in the next decade. Read the news. Learn some Chinese. I think the more language you know the smarter you are as a person. As a human being.

Leaders shouldn't be elected then. Its obvious who the leaders are, we should and will know about them.
Indeed, you'll know about me within 10 years ;)
I'll be the first to produce a Lao Bohan movie! Ha!

Learn from them, KEEP our head up, don't let them foul us, teach our children and educate them well and let them know our Lao people ( or Lao's blood ) must be FIRST CLASS to no one !!!
LET ASK NOT OUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR US, LET US(WE) CAN DO FOR OUR MOTHER-LAND !!!

Let build or have a conference somewhere and talk it out about talent. Good education is not just good enough. One must have a unique character in Unite people, in policies, political , economical maker and good communications.
Wow!!! It sounds good for the first part, but the last part of the topic article seems to be nonesense.
I think that Lao people have united to build Laos prosperous, probably since long time ago. This policy our government has always pursued. Lao people love and help each other. As a result, some also have mentioned earlier that now Laos has changed a lot compared with the past 30 years ago.
Laos is open to the world. Lao government has always welcomed foreign investors, including investors whose race is Lao. They trust the curent Lao government policy. Lots of foreign investors are now doing business in Laos. Laos has changed dramatically.
For those foreigners who love Laos and want to be Laotian or Lao citizen, there is a law for them. Lao government always welcomes the move. That would help Laos to get more talent and smart people.
Before you would talk about the last part of your topic, you need to look at our history. Many Lao people had sacrificed their live for our curent country. Their blood flooded our land. The American legacy still can be seen, that's Laos is the most bombed country in the world. That's why Lao people love peace, but not war like in Iraq and Afhganistan.
I don't think that Lao-foreigners serving foreign countries would dream about returning back to govern Laos as they did before. Lao suffered a lot in that time.
So, if you want to have or elect your boss, nobody in Laos would disturb you, but stay away from Laos.
Wow!!! It sounds good for the first part, but the last part of the topic article seems to be nonesense. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So that answer my question. This Laos person, according to him , Laos will be fine without other Laos help. He is blind from his hatred. Laos right now are being used by other countries for their own interest. The growth will not sustain itself. When the economic down turn reach Asia, the first country to suffer will be Laos and Laotion. My relatives and yours IDIOT.
Hey idiot the last time i checked, Laos is still 10 of poorest country in the world. Dont talk so big. Do you think Laotion abraod are shaking in their boots because Laos dont want them back?.
What do i say to that?. Do i hate him as much?. I dont know?. Let say I hate every word that he wrote and i dispised his tone and i hate being part of his vision of Laos. He disgusted me to my core. What changed?, nothing. Absolutly nothing. I still have my home, my cars, and Laos still be the poorest country on the planet. Nothing.
With an idiot like this guy, who needs enemy. Laos will revert back to the dark ages with his attitude. I think i'll throw my support towards Thailand. GO THAILAND! MY NEW HOME.
ITS EASIER TO LIKE SOMEONE WHO THINK LAOS IS A SECOND CLASS, THEN TO LIKE AN IDIOT LIKE YOU. A LAOTION WHO HATES ANOTHER LAOTION. YEAH, I'M TALKING TO YOU "LAO SPY". OR MAYBE YOUR ARE JUST A C*CKSUCKER.
LAOS WILL NEVER UNITE. ITS A LOST CAUSE. STAY HOME, SAVE YOUR MONEY. LAOS ALREADY HAVE ENOUGHT MONEY. ITS A RICH PROPEROUS COUNTRY ACCORDING TO "LAO SPY". BRING YOUR RELATIVE TO THAILAND.

I do agree with you. Let they dream sweetly and wait till their next life.
We are talking about Laos helping Laos. What is that have to do with America, afghanistan, or Irag. I think you got you subject wrong "LAO SPY". Your hatred will be you demised.
LAOS WILL NEVER UNITE. ITS A LOST CAUSE. STAY HOME, SAVE YOUR MONEY. LAOS ALREADY HAVE ENOUGHT MONEY. ITS A RICH PROPEROUS COUNTRY ACCORDING TO "LAO SPY". BRING YOUR RELATIVE TO THAILAND.
Just want to help Laos buddy. Dont be so negative.
If Laos economy were to boom. Its still 10 to 20 years behind its neightbors. If you know alot about history. Do you think that Vietnam and Thailand wants Laos to past them. I dont think so. Its about power. Laos will alway be under the thumb of Vietnam and Thailand. Since the begining, they want to erase the memory of Laos. To them Laos does not exist. THe more Laos hates Laos the more the neighboring countries are happy. The King of Thailand still think Laos is part of Thailand. And the Vietnamese think that Laos belong to them.
The Cambodian are building their country. Do you think, they want Laos to past them. Do you think all this countries gonna invest millions of dollars in Laos, so that Laos will be equal to them. Think agian idiot. Take you head out of somebody ass for 2 second and smell the stink. Year i'm talking to you "LAO SPY"
I just starting to learn Laos. Relearn about Laos culture, after not caring over 20years. I think i'll stop. Laos people suck!. so much hate. I think i'll learn Isan and Thai instead.

I also agree with you. I am surprised that somepeople called you who disagreed with idiot.
Is it in western countries they were taught like this? They call themselves they are the most educated, but I see the way they expressed not diffirent from low educated people, if not hooligans.
i think who was bunishment for 20 years , you should not remember lao language is better, cuz if you know lao you will make them conflict againe ! relly suck this guy you pretend to forgot you mother language

Thanks so much Rocker for your compliment and support. You are my friend in need. You are the person who always expresses opinions that I really appreciate with regard to Laos.
Actually, I don't bother much about the fact that they blamed me something bad when I disagreed with them.
I just expressed my opinion on behalf of Lao people. So, even I agreed with them doesn't mean Lao people would agree with them.
