Long live Lan Xang. "United we stand divide we fall."

Last time Isan red shirt protest they burn down about 38 building in Bangkok.

I want to see peace not war and conflict.

Not gonna happen!

You know us Lao, we all got our own cliques. Whenever you go to a Lao party, it's always the same people! Every time!

How can our people 'unite' when we gossip about each others' affairs and spread malicious rumours that do nothing but lower our self esteems?

Then there are also the 'staunch' Lao - those unknown to us - who are REAL stubborn and won't even look in your direction - let alone introduce themselves - when crossing paths. To do so might seem like one is 'sucking up', which is akin to begging for money. If they're not in our 'clique', then let them be. How can we unite with this type of upbringing and prejudice?

By the way, Lan Xang glory days are long gone. Issan have already moved on. I think it's time Laos got over it too.

I'm still here every day, even though I am not active.

This time of year is very busy for me, but come the next few months when the rainy season ends and the festivals begin, I'll post more exclusive pictures, especially Boun That Luang.

Yes you will, won't you; albeit just leaving the 'good' parts. Anyway, I just detoured from those 'sites and couldn't spot any improvements. So, what are you guys doing?

When are you going to post new content on here Saovaluck?

Why are Lao people so optimistic towards these people? You guys all sound shocked over our mistreatment by the hands of these creatures, as if this oppression is a new phenomenon. This discrimination has been going on for centuries. This ain't nothing new here, pinong! Cheesy

If you took the time to read my message above, you will get your answer.

I said I'll post more pictures in the next few months. I have other important work to do, so this forum is the least of my worries at the moment.

Reply #29 - 8^th Aug, 2011 at 8:13am Lao people, time to wake up and show the world that you are people who deserve respect. If we don't make noise and stand up for our rights, we will continue to be look down upon and taken advantage of.
