I've never heard of people get kidnapped in Laos, but the story is that the further north of Laos you travel, the more dangerous it becomes, because there are many poor ethnic minorities in those areas.

They won't kidnap you, but there's been some instances where vehicles have been stopped by gangs of thieves, and you need to give them your money and valuables.

I think so. Xieng Khuang is in northern Laos so it's not the safest zone. It's still a rare occurrence, but the stories makes you worry a bit.

Armed bandits can appear out of nowhere and stop a random vehicle on a remote road, so the police and army are not around to help you.

Don't lot of Lao-Hmong live in Xiangkoang? I don't know maybe it was Hmong insurgent.

lolz yes, yes your half correct, hmong freedom fighters to be exact and not the so called "insurgents". anyway there's still a secret war going on as we speak between hmong freedom fighters and the communist lao government. of course today in technical term they are referred to as insurgents or terrorist however my great uncle said they are the hmongs who still believe the war is still going or they have not given up arms because they greatly fear it would mean death or prison for them so they continue on fighting and doing what they can to survive but as far as i know these hmong "insurgents" have not killed anyone yet, so if they stick you up just give them your wallet and run away ok hahaha really they just peaceful people.

You can increase your chances by spending your vacation in a remote forest.
