There are dozens of streets in Laos with foreign names, just as there is every where else in the world. My city too, has street names of various cities. Don't worry!

Where?  I think this street is in VTE.

Why??  Maybe Vietnam donate the $$$ to build this particular road?  Maybe just by honoring big brother.

You must be joking! to my recollection, there were very few french streets' names, but not  Vietnamese street's name in Laos  before 1975 at all !! no

These names were not there before 1975, they must be the new manes for the streets.
