Now nothing impossible man!!!! Now the development depends on the policy to attract foreign investor. Every thing can be possible. Even next few year, we may see Lao city become like other cities in US, Australia or Canada.

Next 10 years, it can be said that Laos will be more prosperous than Thailand and the average income of Lao people in the next 10 years will be higher than average income of Thai people.

You know why?: The answer are: There are many factors that can bring Lao not only out of poverty or under developed but also can bring Laos to be like Simgapore or Dubai.

More dams increases

More tourist coming

More people who are rich

More booming

This means now it is not far behind Thailand.

We want you to look at the new cambodian city. If you see, you will be shocked and surprising. Even Thai people see this, they will be shy that they always look down Cambodia. The city is well organised like cities in Australia, Canada and US.

We did not have any intention to lookdown Thailand but what we do is only answer the question of a person who said "Yes!! Indeed, But we still have a lot of to catch up with Thailand Ok, BRO." and We do not know that there are some Thai people coming to this website.
Yes, every thing is possible. The development of the country today do not only rely on our own money. Even the country has no money, the development can still exist if the government has a good policy to attract foreign investors.
Yes, in term of economy, we try to compete with neigboring countries such as Thailand. Why? because the majority of Thai people always look down Lao people, and Cambodian people. Yes, we always keep in mind and we will never forget it. For example, when Thai people see beautiful or handsome Lao girls and boys, they will think that these people are not purely Lao and they think that it is impossible that Lao girls and boys is handsome or beautiful. Moreover, they always think that Laos will never be developed.
Yes, this is the prediction. Yes you can wait and see.
1. Lao has only 6 million people.
2. More than 100 dams are under construction and more than 100 dams are in the survey.
3. More mineral or mining ore and a lot od natural resources.
4. More investors coming to invest in laos.
5. More tourist will come when the new Lao airports is finished and when the Lao airline has international flight so it can create jobs.
6. Average income of people in the big city like Vietiane, Savannakhet and Champasak are already between US 1,000 and US 2,000 per years and this is not much diiferent from neigboring countries. The annual income is lower only when we average to all lao people living in rural areas.
7. More domestic products increase so this means we can import less
8. More argriculture production increase
9. we already have a beautiful tourist attractions but only need more promotion and advertising.
10. Let's look at 10 years before, Lao peole had not many cars. Most of them has only motorbike and bicycles but now we can see many cars and more surprising than that we can see a lot of nercedez bez, Lexus and even Jacgua, Hamer, Ferreri etc.
11. Our currency is stable.
12. The sky train project in Vientiane is under survey and design
Absolutely, the city can be like in US, Australia and Canada or like in Dubai if the government use the same or similar policy as the government of UAE already using.
Yes, it is possible that Laos can be similar to Singapore or Dubai in the next 10 years. Thai people will not be able to look down us any more.
Now let imagine if we have the same income as Vietnam and thailand but devided only to 6 or 7 or 8 million people in the next 10 years. We are sure that our average income will be higher than these countries about 6 or 7 times.

[New tiger economic countries in Asia] What the heck does this mean in English?

You know why?: The answer are: There are many factors that can bring Lao not only out of poverty or under developed but also can bring Laos to be like Simgapore or Dubai.]

Oh! Lord Buddha! Please enlighten me; how the hell in this world of delusion can possibly blind the person to the point of a complete darkness? It is really beyond my mental capacity to comprehend this unthinkable hypothesis and even if a professed astrologer would not dare to predict something like this as well as any professed economists would not have a reasoning process to these comparisons.

I understand your good intention for our motherland but you lack the basic knowledge of Microeconomics. Let us hope for Laos to get out of the category of the most underdeveloped country by 2020 first before stacking up ourselves to Thailand and leave Singapore and Dubai out of this illusion simply they are too far ahead. Our GDP is barely $14 billion dollars primarily composed of agriculture and services and employment still heavy relies on subsistence agriculture indeed. The government would not have much capital investment for the heavy dependency upon foreign aid donors. Don’t get me wrong though. I have read some significant economic progress in Laos recently especially from foreign investment in hydropower, mining and other construction, but these are not guaranteed without further reforms or adaptation of certain selective policies to ensure adequate accommodation to all interest-entrepreneurs such as simplifying investment procedures, allow greater competition among domestic and foreign banking institutions which I am sure Lao PDR is doing that if not already done it.

I am also very pleased to learn that Laos had gain normal trade relations status with the United States that would help reduce its tariffs on its exports. Undeniably, Laos will be economically in a better position 20 years from now and removing itself from poverty is achievable based on its empirical performance for the last 10 years. Yes, we should all be proud of our motherland but let’s not have the premature ejaculation yet. You should know Laos has more room to grow due to its prolonged poverty and the 6% or 7% percent economic growth is not anything near a miracle just like filling water in two buckets one is nearly full and the other is quite empty, so it does not take a brain of rocket scientists to figure out why Laos grow rate is highly than her neighboring Thailand.

“Laos has more rooms to grow”

I don't think it's possible in the next 10 years. Dubai or UAE is fast growing, yes it's right but remember they have oil and no one land except the King. So it's easy to deal with these businessman around the world to invest in the country. Free Trade and free taxes

Build too much dams in Lao mean we need to cut off the tree or reducing the green area. How much money that we have to pay for the maintainance each year? And you think we selling the electricity can make us rich? In case of we did not trake a good care of these dams and if it crack. I'm sure many people who living near there will be lost their life or homeless

Most of the people driving an expensive cars in Vientiane..I knew these boys are from the political famililies ( most well corrupted family names)

By 2020 Lao will have only the most highest buiilding in Lao in just 20 storey

Argriculture is only biggest export to oversea to only Thailand, Vietnam and China. It wont go so far as we are not located to the sea port and only one way that we can trade with the country on other side of the world is by airplane. Are we ready for that yet?

The most important right now is giving people have more high education but if you calculate the amount of people who study in high school is so low. Especially in the remote area. How many % of us to greduated from University each year?

I believed that Lao population rate is growing every year. It's not just only 6 M by now maybe nearly 7 M already

If the growing rate of the Lao population is in the main big city is fine but if the growing rate is in the rural area sounds not too good as they maight not able to have good education. And it's hard to make the dream come true

chiip · Guru

yes, I' ll wait and see but actually we are the least developed country in this world, so, don't fly too high, it may hurt you when you fall down, if you travel to the countryside, you'll see many many people under the poverty line, so keep your unrealistic dreams for yourself for me I'm trying to be selfsufficient, the chief thing in my life is to be happy, not to be rich.

The way you guys look at the world is too simple. Tall buildings, big airport are not purely indicate how wealthy the country are. Look at China. There is the biggest airport in the world and too many tall building but China is still developing country and still far behind developed countries like UK, US, etc.

You think that Thailand is more sivilisation than us and we can't be better than this because you look at the buildings, road, and airport and these things are look impossible for us. IS that right? This is not correct. You should look at the average of income per person. Their average income is still far behind developed world.

If you think that it is impossible that Lao can not be better than Thailand in terms of economic, let's look at this question.

If Lao government want to build a big city like Sydney but has no money, what should the government do?

What happen if tomorrow the Lao government offer free tax, lower rent or whatever offering satisfy investors?

Yes, there might be hundreds of investors want to build the city for us. Then it is not surprise to see next 5 years, Laos has the city look like Sydney. This the same thing that Cambodian government is doing now.

For the policy maker, it is possible to develop the country become modern.

i think it's a bit premature to consider these countries as "tiger economies" presently, but they should be on their way to more developments. i love how simple and uncommercial Laos is - and the people are generally kinder and more honest - so I am not exactly thrilled to see it boom into the chaos that's similar to its neighboring countries.

I agree with you on this. I think the competitive advantage of Laos over its neighbors is its natural beauty and the character of the local people. In most of the provinces you go in Laos you will definietly be captivated by the natural beauty of its landscape...the mountain ranges, the rivers, the forest. Im not saying that Lao should not develop but it should plan the development very carefully so as not to achieve progress at the expense of destroying its raw charm. I would love to see laos to have tall buildings or other modern structure, but leave them to the city or town centers, not in the areas where they will block the beautiful view for everyone to enjoy for free. smile

Yes!! Indeed, But we still have a lot of to catch up with Thailand Ok, BRO.

Laos do not need to catch up with Thailand , we're not in the race with any body ok. You've got it all wrong buddy!

Yes!! You're absolutely right, About What you just said Bro'' LAOS '' Do not need to cach-up with Thailand or Anybody else. and I got it all wrong. Can you be more specificlly with me Why you said i got it all wrong?? and the reason why i was mention Thailand. Because 99.9 percents of our Lao-nai know and understand what was going on in Thailand. and there's a lot of goodthing that we can learn from that country, for example: Reform our education, Reform economy, setting up stock market, training all the new generation who just grduated from over sea, train all who want to work in finacial sectors, and especially in agriculture, and Why thailand?? easy answer, Because we speak almost the same languages there's no need translation, Right!! and i also know that some of our Lao-nok really hated thai. everytime when we bring up about thai or anything about thai they really got pissed, and of course i do understand some of our lao-nok got treated really bad back in thailand, including my self too. but i got mad only to some indivisual idiot not the whole thailand or all thai people. we as lao need to be open a little bit more to the outside world ok. and sure some of them stil look down on us but hell with them. we as lao nok considering our self as educators don't need to talk and act like those idiot, what ever they say just ignor it. don't waste your time to answer it . and i'm not here to promot thailand ok. i'm not thai nor has a thai's blood. but talk with reasonable.

Korea's Hyundai Group to build vehicle assembling factory in Cambodia: ambassador

Hyundai Company of South Korea will build a vehicle assembling factory in Cambodia, South Korean ambassador to Cambodia said on Wednesday.

"The vehicle assembling factory will be opened in coastal Koh Kong Province," Lee Kyung Soo, South Korean ambassador here told reporters in a news conference on the state visit of South Korea president Lee Myung Bak to Cambodian on Oct. 22-23.

The press conference is organized by the club of Cambodian Journalists.

But Lee Kyung Soo did not give the details about the amount invested by Hyundai in Cambodia. Deputy Director General of Hyundai Group already paid a visit to Cambodia a few days ago, LeeKyung Soo said.

The press release from South Korean Embassy in Phnom Penh said that Camko Motor Company is building a Hyundai car assembly factory in Koh Koh province, about 370 km southwest of capital Phnom Penh. It covered land area of 165,000 square meters with two facilities for maintenance and dormitory. It can assemble 3,000 cars per year and the type of car including SUV, Van and other cars.

According to Lee Kyung Soo, South Korea's investment in Cambodia last year was worth about 1,238 million US dollars, but for the first six months of this year, the investment decreased about 58 percent compared with the same period of last year because of the global financial crisis. South Korea's investment in Cambodia focuses on the rubber plantation, mines, energy, oil and gas, real estate, tourism, construction, agri-industry, Lee Kyung Soo said.

For the bilateral trade between the two countries in 2008, Cambodia imported about 309 million US dollars worth of products from South Korea and Cambodia's export to South Korea about 294 million US dollars. So far this year the two

I dont want to criticize those who say something that Laos to achieve speed economic growth Rate.... I understand the way that those people including the people from neigboring country and some lao live in State, but it is better to remain optimistic and have a mind of " we can do that, we can do all", work hard to achieve all, not the words but the deeds.

I think we can grow fast, if we have tight management of the budget, tax revenue, people sacrifice more for next generation, work hard this generation so next generation can become better.

[New tiger economic countries in Asia] What the heck does this mean in English?

[Next 10 years, it can be said that Laos will be more prosperous than Thailand and the average income of Lao people in the next 10 years will be higher than average income of Thai people.
You know why?: The answer are: There are many factors that can bring Lao not only out of poverty or under developed but also can bring Laos to be like Simgapore or Dubai.]
Oh! Lord Buddha! Please enlighten me; how the hell in this world of delusion can possibly blind the person to the point of a complete darkness? It is really beyond my mental capacity to comprehend this unthinkable hypothesis and even if a professed astrologer would not dare to predict something like this as well as any professed economists would not have a reasoning process to these comparisons.
I understand your good intention for our motherland but you lack the basic knowledge of Microeconomics. Let us hope for Laos to get out of the category of the most underdeveloped country by 2020 first before stacking up ourselves to Thailand and leave Singapore and Dubai out of this illusion simply they are too far ahead. Our GDP is barely $14 billion dollars primarily composed of agriculture and services and employment still heavy relies on subsistence agriculture indeed. The government would not have much capital investment for the heavy dependency upon foreign aid donors. Don’t get me wrong though. I have read some significant economic progress in Laos recently especially from foreign investment in hydropower, mining and other construction, but these are not guaranteed without further reforms or adaptation of certain selective policies to ensure adequate accommodation to all interest-entrepreneurs such as simplifying investment procedures, allow greater competition among domestic and foreign banking institutions which I am sure Lao PDR is doing that if not already done it.
I am also very pleased to learn that Laos had gain normal trade relations status with the United States that would help reduce its tariffs on its exports. Undeniably, Laos will be economically in a better position 20 years from now and removing itself from poverty is achievable based on its empirical performance for the last 10 years. Yes, we should all be proud of our motherland but let’s not have the premature ejaculation yet. You should know Laos has more room to grow due to its prolonged poverty and the 6% or 7% percent economic growth is not anything near a miracle just like filling water in two buckets one is nearly full and the other is quite empty, so it does not take a brain of rocket scientists to figure out why Laos grow rate is highly than her neighboring Thailand.

Let's me show the statistics regarding GDP per capita in US dollars for 2008

Thailand                              4,150
Vietnam                              1,080
Lao and Cambodia              around 800

I can say that Lao must use several decades to catch up Thailandinterms of this statistics. However, the first thing that Lao need to do is to depend on their own. Every years, Lao government have to recieve a lot of donated money from foreign countries, because the government reciept from domestic activities is much less than the government expenditure. Moreover, Laos has a lot of things to do:

Health Cares: A lot of Laos people still go to Udon and Nong Khai for Health Cares
Education: National university of Laos offer only undergraduate program
Road and highway system: quite bad, need a lot of improvement
Train system: only 15 km from Nong Khai to Tha Na Lang
Science and Technology: Does Lao have enough technicians like engineers to serve foreign investors ?

Just wanna say that building infrastructure is really hard and time consuming: airport, metro, deep sea port. For Thailand, this country is not the best and has a lot of things to do. More subways, highway and high spped train are needed. The most difficult thing to develop a country is to make our dream or plan come true. That's the point.

The data from IMF regrading Gross Domestic Products in 2008 (unit: billion US Dollars)

Country	2008
Cambodia	11.25
Lao People's Democratic Republic	5.374
Thailand	273.313
Vietnam	89.829

You can compare the size of each country's economy. Vietnam is only 1/3 of Thailand. Cambodia is 1/25 and Laos is 1/54 of Thailand.

Siamese,

It's a good thing that Lao ppl are lazy. If the Lao were diligent like the Muslim in the South, Thailand would be in a whole lot of trouble. Look at how difficult it is for Thailand to deal with a handful of Muslim Insurgents in the South. You don't wanna know what gonna happen with the Lao Esan.

If Esan is burning, do not think that Lao PDR will sit idle like nothing happened. The least Lao PDR could do for its brethren in Westbank of the Mekong is provide political and moral supports. LOL

Please do yourself a favor and stop talking big in here. First of all you need to get your house in order and get the situation in the South under control. The Southern Insurgents are minnow compare to the Lao in Esan. Do not take our silences as weakness. There is always calm before the big storm.

Lao PDR is not yet ready for Esan, but if you kept insist in shoving it down our throat. We'll have no other alternative but to swallow it.

You like it not but it is the truth Laos need Thailand to find the way to the sea and Thailand need Laos to sell their products and raw martial and wood and timbers . If there are more tourists in Thailand so do Laos. So Vietnam and Cambodia are also the same relate to Thailand one way of the other in economy.

Because it is the truth that the politician always go by the people feeling and the media because they would like to be elected again specially in Thailand. Matter of fact there might not a election but selection by some power dictator any way.
