What is holding back Lao singers from being more successful?
Permalink   


Lao people are holding back their own artists from succeeding. Lao people that own vcd shops sell Thai albums illegally. The albums are all copied and sold at a real cheap price. Cheaper than Lao music. Most Lao people buy Thai songs because there not expensive. Lao singers would have more success and be more popular if Lao people stopped selling copies of Thai music. The way that all the business owners get away with this is that they pay off the Lao government every month so they can do this illegal work. This is an example of corruption in Laos.

Sure blame it on everything else. Blame it on the Thai's, the gov't, the people themselves, just don't blame it on the rain, cause it keeps on falling....

Can you tell me how many people speak the Lao language? 5 million or so? Thai people don't understand when we speak Laos to them. Most Lao people understand when Thai people speak thai to them. How many Thai speaking people are there you ask? A lot more then 5 million. I guess you don't understand anything about market capitalization. So tell me again why Lao people are holding back their own artists?

you said corruption, which is only one of the factors that is holding us back.
I think the real problem here has to do a lot with the people.
Do you think people somewhere in the village would really care about singers?
I think all they care about, as of now, is to make a living, to support their family and such.
Laos is still developing~~
It's not that we are holding our singers back.
Our population is way smaller than our neighbors. It's kind of hard to do things when our smaller is small. We have very little 'good' artists. Even people in the capital have to work for their living, selling thai CDs you said? copied?
So an actual real copy costs about 100 to 200 baht? i think..
that's a lot for a CD, thats like 50000 kip? some people live off of less than 50 000 a day :(
you see what I am saying here?
:)

you can't force people to love what they don't love , you know the answer why? if you are living in the cave and just out off the cave i would understand.. no matter whatever government attempt to do to promote lao music or change the law won't be work to change people's taste ..

one thing can be changed lao people 's taste is, reform lao music and make it better,  smarter blabla...thats all they will win our heart.. this is what i think and hopefully it won't hurt somone's feeling here , especially the poster.

I do Know that there some excellent Lao musicians out there such as Cells, Sook, Tee oudalai, Temple guys,  Jaden, and Sarky.

It was pretty hard for me to buy the cd from some of the musicians from Laos, because some of them only came out with vcd, and here in the U.S where can I actually buy or order those cd from Laos?

What is holding back lao singers from being more successful ??..  That's very Easy answer for me...1# Rule and Regulation. all the Artiste have follow certainly Rule that the government set it out for them.. So that none of these artiste cann  be themself 100 percent..2# Capital Investment,  mean money.  Most of Recording Company in our country(laos) are very small or midium side. so, they can't do whatever they want, because money is kindda short..

"The only thing that was responsible for this problem is this SayMyName Biatch that's it!!"

It's this exact same behaviour that is holding back Laos people. What a hypocrite. Laos people disprespecting each other and then ask why we are holding each other back. Maybe look at yourself first, why are you trying to hold me back? Don't know anything about me and what I have done to support Lao artists and start calling me names. Certainly tells me what type of person you are to make geralized statements such as "Lao people are holding back their own artists from succeeding". By saying that you totally undermind all Lao people who have actually bought real copies and support the true artists. Maybe you should think before you talk next time. Like myself and others have stated, the market for Lao music isn't as large and you need money to market and promote these artists to the world. Perhaps the recording companies are happy with their profits with respects to the amount they initially invested.
The reason Lao people buy these cheap copies is cause they are poor and I don't blame them cause the gov't is corrupt and won't help them. No jobs, no loans, no local funding to help the people. No laws/enforcement to stop illegal copies. So in the end, blame the greed of the gov't for all the problems. Can anyone overthrow this communist dictatorship that controls Laos?

I just feel that anyone who has real talent - regardless of piracy of music/videos/movies - will still really shine despite all setbacks. after all, real talent is universal.

"bash and stalk", haha... sorry I don't got time for that, perhaps you do cause your obsessed with her, not me, I don't even know who she is like I said.

Hey I wasn't the one that started that thread about hating her, I just thought it was funny that someone else besides me was tired of seeing all the useless post about her. Looks like the admin is her stalker too cause he deleted that thread, and I didn't even get a chance to read all the lame posts either.

"Your egotistical attitude only denied your bad action that's very typical of your kind!!"
Hey are you also Lao? Maybe you should check yourself before you wreck yourself.

Before you said anything why don't you go and check on how many of copied cd/dvd/vcd you own first...

if the music is good I buy it at any price...if, they wanted to make it music industries they will have to invent themself in a way that they would stand out, no one can hold them back.

most lao singers do not have proper lessions in music. some even without any....I can count with just one hand of how many good Artists in Lao and I said Artists not just singers there is a big different.
