ATMs are available in Vientiane and are expected to expand

Automated teller machines or ATMs are pretty much everywhere within the city of Vientiane these days. Some areas of Vientiane even have a couple of ATM's from different banks beside each other.

Even though there's the convenience of an ATM, please be warned that cash advances in Laos have high fees and charges for foreign credit card transactions, so it's advisable to bring cash readily available to use when visiting Laos.

Most businesses in Laos such as general shopping don't accept credit cards unless you go to expensive hotels and restaurants.

you need put a lot of money inside or you put a flexible sanner inside to get the information from bank cards.  I think you are thinking the second. Grin

I hope those ATMs are secured and bolted own tight. We have thug issues in my city where dark skin sagging pants wearing tattooed gansta rap listening thugs would steal big trucks and use them to knock down and steal ATMs.

They do have them even in small tourist areas, like Tad Lo, Salawan..There's one by the morning market. At night that area is teeming with brothels in every directions, probably at least 10-15 in Tad Lo alone..The white people come for the waterfall, the Lao tourists come for something else.

The Lao tourists usually come for the girls, as there is a large (but seemingly hidden during the daytime) red light district in Tad Lo. A lot of those girls are Lao Teng and they come from the mountainous tribal areas (Ta-Oy, Dak Jeung) to make money.

You'll have to go for yourself and see if you really want to know more, but all of the clientele I've seen there is Asian men. I've seen a couple locations with girls from Vietnam, a lot of tribal Lao mountain girls, and a lot of Lao Lum girls. These are mostly Karaoke bars but some are just plain brothels. I counted at least 10-15 in the village, which is a lot because it's a very small village. The tourists come to see the waterfall at the end of the road and there are a bunch of foreign guesthouses there. The brothels are concentrated around the intersection with the market and the ATM.

Girls providing services are very common in developing nations. Immoral as it is it is the way it is around the world since the past and today and for the future. Prostitution has been going since the beginning of human time. I see these in many locations in Mexico, Venezuela, Brazil and other Latin American nations.

A post about ATMs has turned into a post about prostitution.

Thank you very much gentlemen, but we respect freedom of speech on Lao Pride forum.
