Laos lost trade arbitration and ordered to pay $56 million for damage.
So far, the Lao government refuses to pay up. How will this affect investor's confidence when government does not abide by international rules regarding investment and trade? Who would dare to invest in Laos if Lao government acts in an irresponsible manner? How will this affect Laos desire to join the World Trade Organization?
In any normal country, the person or people responsible for cancelling the original agreement with Thai-Lao Lignite would have been publicized and fired from their jobs. This is Laos. This country is no different from its neighbor to the west that lost arbitraiton to a German construction firm then refused to pay.

The problem in the Lao government that no one seems to honor their loan and obey the law that were written by their own hands. So how you could become part of the world community when you don't honor of your commitment. Lao government doesn't understand how to trade and trust and credit .
That is the reason why Laos is the least development and the poorest country. The same old people who know how to use the credit card but don't know to make a payment or pay off the debt. Stupid don't know how to build credit and trade.
So what is the whole story here ? Why Laos got fine ?
Broke the contract , not honoring their signature and commitment and run out of money before the project finished . The same old story is repeating over and over again. Mismanagering the money and going broke.

lao will never join the wto. useless country that likes to blame on its neighbors for its failure
I think you're just jealous that Laos is working very closely with China. Vietnamese seem to feel offended like most Viet Nationalist. Vietnamese shouldn't worry about Laos future since it's not you're worried. You should worried about China taking over Vietnam one day.

China will never take over Vietnam but China might take over Taiwan and Spratly island.

But you're from Dac Lac, Vietnam. Why is there reason for you to insult Lao?
If Red prince Souphanouvong didn't allowed Ho Chiminh's troops went through Laos to get to South. and there's no way in hell that North VietCong would've beat the Yankees and Southern troops in the South, period. Plus, there's a gays in the White House at that time. if Nixon capture the White House, He'd have drop the just one Nuk in Vietnam and HoChiminh would've disappear.....

That was not how the North Vietnam won the war . No body defeated the American military but the American people who demonstrated in America to stop the war in Vietnam . Vietnam fought to unite Vietnam and did not do any thing to United States like the Japanese bombed the Pearl harbor or Hitler declared way against the US or Osama Ben Ladden had done on 9/11 / 2001. So the American people didn't have the stomach to see the innocent Vietnamese women and children were killed by the US soldiers.
Chinese people are different from the American people . So Chinese military could do what they want regardless of the Chinese like it or not. So Vietnam is better to watch out that China might invade Vietnam and send 100 of millions Han Chinese to occupy Vietnam.

Regardless of Prince Souphanouvong allowed Uncle Ho 's troop to go thru Laos or not , They would go thru any way and nothing the Lao royal government could do to stop them even the B 52 dropped tons of bombs still not stopping them. So you got it , Lao people lost the war and Kaisone and his party won the war .So Lao people must accepted the defeat to be ruled by the group of people who won the war 36 years ago. That is why the people have no power but some group of people who won the war are ruling the country with the help of the Vietnamese army. So Lao people must accept the defeat and live with it.

Lao is always the loser because Lao never united unlike Israeli. Israel and Laos have the same population but Laos is bigger and has more natural resouce .

Israeli people are more well educated and more intelligent than Laotian specially their leader and government.
