If you come to Laos, you can read the Vientiane Times where jobs are advertised every day.  The best way to search for a job is to be here, but you have to be prepared to spend the time and have the financial resources to support you while you are looking, attending interviews, etc.

From outside Laos,I suggest you use Google to search for the names and email addresses of all the foreign companies working in Laos and send your CV to each.

For most expatriate positions, you would not be expected to speak Lao and would be paid far more than most teachers.

Good luck!

if you cant speak laos you already fail, hahaha i mean how do you expect to communicate, sign language? lolzz i suggest you take a year to learn the fundamentals before any time or money is invested.

You don't necessarily need to know how to speak Lao fluently.

If you work with a foreign company or non-governmental organization (NGO) in Laos, your colleagues and staff are able to communicate in English with you.

Once you live and work in Laos for a while, you learn simple Lao words naturally, such as greetings, because you hear them all the time.
