I think it is not ridiculous to translate Sabaidee to Sawasdee, because in Thailand they also used the word Sabaidee, but for the meaning of "I'm fine", not a greeting like in Laos. Don't think that all the people in Thailand or other parts of the world understand the greeting word "Sabaidee". Remember this is the first Lao movie in the 33 years time! so don't expect much that people know about Laos. Some people even don't know what the capital of Laos is. If we have more than 100 films in the near future, I will not complaint anything.

thank for charing ,kop jai lai lai

YEAH why ppl always like to complain? in whatever topic, it comes out, most ppl like to find the weakness and complain. They may forget the good points of those points and do not give any compliment. that's bad... u should see both sides. As you know this is the first lao movie in 33 years, so u should cheer them up, tell them to keep up a good work...

btw, i really wanna see this movie, does anyone know how can we access to this movie?

Keep up the good work SABAIDEE LPB team... hope ur movie is successful as you guys expected

hahhahaa can't do anything to make lao folks happy.... instead rally together and support our lao artists... people will always find negative things to say.. for those who are so negative about this movie should at least wait and watch the whole movie.... til than you can give proper review!!

i think it is a good start... lao producer is trying to come out with a movie that all the lao people can be proud of.. im giving him two thumbs up!!!! i can't wait to see the finish product..

My question is  Why there are Thai letters instead of Lao letters?   On the other hand.  I support and wish there are more Lao movies to come.

where did you see the thai letters??? on their website?? perhaps, this movie is being funded by Thai company.. to me, anytime Laos can expose themselve to the world in a positive manner than it is all good..

You need to watch the clips again.  Actor, actress names are written in Thai.  Even Vientiane , Parkse are written in Thai. Ain't I right?

Thank you for a good new change and opportunity to had made the movie in Lao and opening up of lao to the outside world and hope for more movies to come.
Thanks again.

That is why it should be "Sabaidee".  So the whole world would know about Laos.  Now all the people who watches this movies gonna think that all the sceneries are from Thailand.  And this movie is about Thailand. 

WOw... ALee speaks very sweet, and they are a perfect match !
