Opening a small business in Laos is much easier than you think. Lao culture and society is big on social network. I can recommend a lot of business idea to you but without knowing you working background I cannot point you to the right direction. 

I know a Lao-American man that are currently doing well in the landscaping business in Vientiane. Laos tourism industry is growing rapidly. If you have skill in these area are supporting these area you going to do well in Laos. Also, the agricultural sector has alot to offer as forest food product in Laos are increasing scarces. 

Give me your personal email and I'll point you to the right people in Laos. Do not let anyone in the West with political agenda scars you. Laos is open for business. Leave you political bull**** back home and you'll be fine.

Stop living in a fantasy world. The truth is that the Chinese are generally efficient in businesses. You don't need no data to proof that Lao people are lacking in business in comparison to the Chinese. The verdict is out there. Just look around within your community.

Evidently you don't get out much. Vientiane is full of Sino-Lao and Viet-Lao of millionaires. Central Lao Airlines, Phongsavan Bank and Dao Huang coffee is owned by who? Need I say more?

What the **** do you expect the Lao people to do with those vast natural resources? Wait for the mold to grow on it? Lao people are not stupid. If we can't extract those natural resources ourselves, we'll find someone that can and we'll split the profits. It will do Laos absolutely nothingto let it sitting there idle. It's only natural for Laos to taps onto its riches.

I don't think Lao people in general are lazy. However there are some f*cking lazy mofos out there.

 You make some real general statements, any data to back that up? Where are all these millionaires that you speak of? The rich chinese and viets come to laos to rob it of it's rich natural resources. You think lao people are lazy? There are no facking jobs! Chinese bring their own workers, so do the viets. I seen it with my own two eye balls. Yeah there are poor lao people in the west but you make assumptions that it's because they are lazy? That is really mind blowing ignorance. You telling me that a kid growing up in dirt poor area of Laos is poor because he's lazy? And that's why Lao girls go to sell themselves in Thailand right, because they are lazy?

Where do you come up with these ideas that Lao American businesses are owned and operated by chinese and viets of laos decent. Which ass crack did you pull that one out of?

You know why these chinese and viets are allowed to come to laos and take what they want? Cause the facking system allows them to, that's why. Commie gov't gets their cut and banks it in the swiss account. Viets control the Lao gov't anyways, half of them are gooks to begin with, they even have gook names, go read up on their biographies.

I came from facking dirt poor of laos, but I am not poor in my mind or in my bank account anymore. Maybe if you weren't so facking lazy, you would actually do your research and get edumacated before speaking from your ass. Not everyone is as stupid to believe what you say.

I live in the real world biatch, the only lazy and stupid azz mofo is you who thinks money grows on trees and that there are "millionaires" everywhere in Laos.

You don't live in no goddamn real world, punk! A punk ass like you are nothing but a wannabe American street gang banger living out your ghetto fantasy. 

 

Name me a FACKING persons name and some proof idiot. Next thing you're going to tell me is that a facking viet owns APPLE and that the Chinese own Microsoft. Name me those millionaires that you speak of that are sino-viet-lao

 

I ain't gotta proof anything to you, punk! You're not even a ****ing Lao. You're just an angry jobless refugee! If you're Lao and familiar with Lao current event you wouldn't need me to cited you names.

 

whatever the hell. I told you before, viets control Laos and its puppet commie gov't, that's why they can come and take all the shiet they want from Laos and get rich off of it and go back to their country and leave the poor in laos to stay poor.

LOL

Punk, you don't know **** about Laos. So please don't even go there. A refugee like you will never set foot in Lao soil again. Tattoo that down in your forehead, punk!

 

You got to stop with your racial ignorance man cause "evidently you don't get out much". Next you're going to tell me that black people are nigga's and like to eat fried chicken.

Evidently, it is you who are ignorant. Just look at your perspective of the African-American community. Hello???

 

No data and no proof = your own opinion and not the truth.

Genius, when something it's such a common knowledge and so obvious you don't need no proof or data to back it up! Understand?

 

Your generalizations keep showing how ignorant you are. You are comparing Lao to Chinese? They have over 1 billion people, we have 5 million. You telling me just because they have a convenience store on every block that they are "generally efficient in businesses"? I see that you are unintelligent, uneducated, ignorant and have no insight on the world today.

Einstein, if the Chinese aren't efficient in Business....Why would the World's richest nation be owing the Red Chinese 3 plus trillions dollars. Common logic and rationale at work here, genius! LOL

You mean the 5 million lazy laos people who are lazy cause they are poor? The viet-commie gov't keeps them poor, they got no choice. The viets and chinese come from OUTSIDE of Laos with their own millions to come and invest and take what they want from Laos. You think this is becaus they are smarter in business and more efficient? I say this is a viet-commie lao gov't selling out its own people to get rich.

Dude, stop putting words in my mouth. No one is keeping those poor Lao people down but themselves. The Lao economy is the 2nd fastest growth in Asia only after China. The Sino and Viet-Lao community has brilliantly demostrate to the rest of the country that wealth can be made and attain within Laos.

 

I expect Lao people to be able to use their OWN natural resources for THEIR benefit and become millionaires, not the facking viets or chinese. It is called Laos for a reason right, it is for Lao people.

Do you honestly think the Lao people give a flying **** about  what an insignificant Foreigner like you have to say? Haha Dude, you seriously need a reality check!

I never said the Lao people are stupid, only you. The viet-commie gov't that controls Laos is stupid. They are the ones getting rich and selling the natural resources and allowing viets and chinese to take it and get rich off of it. Look at the logging, look at the hydro dams, look at the land concessions, who's taking it all?

Dude, you're putting words in my mouth again. It seems like your out of your jurisdiction on this one. A foreigner like you have no place and say in Laos' internal affairs.

 

 

i think a tourist business is very hot 

think about opening a new tourist spot investment or tourist agency

honestly there are very very small percentage that makes it stable and big.  I personaly got back stabbed.  You just have to watch the people around you.  Just put the money in the bank where it is the safest place, but also can be the worst place if the economy is shacky.  I would love to meet with you and talk, but again a very scary thing to say. :)  Just watch out and be very careful.

Yes he is right. Invest in livestock. Or now is good time to invent is concrete. There will me many km of roads to build. If you want to invest in road construction equipment then bid on gov jobs and contract your equipment to building roads. Best investment is when concrete company list on the stock market  then buy stocks.  People are always willing to buy livestock. My wife and I bought a farm and are growing Cavassa and rice. Now prices down but in the future as people get more transportation they will need fuel or Biofuel so farm land is a great investment. We are now looking for 30 to 40 hectors to plant more Cavassa trees. Forget about bars or eating shops. Money will be in farms.

Regards,

American married and living is Laos

Sir ,

Just did a spell check and wiped out what I just wrote..

I just want to say you have money to invest here that is good. The banks pay great for investing in 2 or 3 year accounts (12% and 13% respectively) Check with BCEL and other banks in the area.  

I invested in the stocks 5K in each of the two stocks. You seem to want to get back to your roots. Your job in USA was Police that has taught you much experience. I want first to tell you if you do not have jai Kuang it is not worth coming back. If you are jai bolisud then you most likely will be welcome with open arms.  I spent 10 years active military and eight years with gov service GS 13 and resigned. I have been living with Laos in America since 1976 and now live in Vientiane. I have never had a problem living here. I hear and read lots about dangers here but have never seen this first hand. Most of the bad I hear from overseas Laos people when e-mailing them. I can tell you from my experience this is a great country and the people are some of the best I have ever known. I am only talking about the average citizens in my village and when in Vientiane.

I am not familer with the upper echolon in the country but only the average everyday workers. My wifes family are farmer and work hard to produce rice and Cavassa. They visit the temple every day and offer thanks for each day they are able to keep going.  Yes,  there are people that will take your money and run. This you must be careful. Do not be jai ngai. Safety first. Invest some money in a bank with sit and talk with them about the returns. Then get to know the people you pick as friends. Good ones will advise you. They will cover your back and give good adivce. Most lao people are very good at heart. Maybe like usa 20% not good. I hope the best to you and a long and happy life where ever you decide to live. Personally I perfer here in Laos then the usa. If ever out traveling Hwy 10 north you will seem my farm.

Thank you so much for your advise and thank you to all of whom gave me the ideas and instructed me to be careful with my money to invest in Laos.

This month, August, is my last day of my job as State Police Officer and after my retire requirement process is done I will kicking off my next project to look

forward to do business in my motherland to help Laos govt. create jobs. In my mind I want to reduce the poor Lao people leave their love one and families

to go to Thailand for working to earn income to support their families. If possible, I want to stop them to go work in Thailand in the future to come.

Thank you so much for everyone who's supporting me the ideas.

Respectfully,

 Here's one of the corrupt Lao people. Millionaires huh? That is so laughable. Commie brainwashing is still working I guess.

 Stop making excuses for lazy people. There are Lao people in the US and the West and yet there are poor Lao. It's not the system. It's the individual's lifestyle  and habit. There are Vietnamese and Chinese making a million in Laos. 

The same is true with the Chinese and Vietnamese community in the US. Most of Lao-American businesses are own and operated by Chinese and Vietnamese of Lao origins.

 Yes Sir, its a systems that people poorand lazy. either here in US or in Laos. In Laos commies lao do not understand the free market systems. they the Pathed lao own and operated the way they want that's why they never gone nowhere. look at U.S.S.R now they collapsed becuse they can't compete with the west. 

as for lao who live in the west are still poor. again the system make them lazy, Why ? Welfare system, Unemployment check, for example: if the guys make 300 per week and he can collect unemployment for 350-400 buck per week why would he/she works ? tell me ? is it a systems that make them lazy ? yes absolutely 10000000%.

As for Chinese and Vietnamese, did you know all of these people they have their own Samakom that can help their own community start small or midium size businesses. and not every Chinese and Vietnamese have success believe me I know that...because I'm one of those.
