Reading Japanese blogs about Lao festival in Tokyo, all are disappoited to learn that except Beerlao, Lao coffee, and a few Lao restaurants, the remained shops are thai, and selling thai foods and products.
This is the second festival of Laos in Tokyo, but not thing improved and changed compare to the festival 2 years ago.
This implied that the organizers who conducted this just want to used Laos to sell thai products. On top of that, mfany Japanese confuse if it is Laos or Thai festival
