Thank you. It's a very nice project. Anybody can buy a resident there when its complete.

I thought there was a conference-like meeting in Minnesota on this project?

Yes they have conference, and party the same day in Minnesota then another party in Texas.

Still no pictures? ;D

No, no more posting picture :)

For Lao to be put on fast track, let its citizenship restrictions freed a little.  Compared with its vast land, millions of more wont be a problem.

I would concentrate on infrastructures first:

(1) Flooding control systems in major metroplex areas (Vientaine, Savankhett and Luong Pabong etc...),
(2) Build better quality primary, secondary roads and National Route 13.
(3) Enhance water quality and sewage system.

Totally agree

Dont think about the environment if economic growth is priority!

New development have sewer system and flood.

Laos want to catch with the neighboring country. They want to become land link and battery of ASEAN.

Of course the environment is highly important to consider when 'developing'.  However the major metropolis areas (Vientaine, Luang Pabang, Savanaket) do not cover much of land coverage relative to the land area of Laos.  There are still land areas outside of these metropolis areas that can be virgins still and can transform into wildlife sanctuaries.

Only 4% of land in Laos can be used for rice growing. Most is mountains

Laos import rice from Lao Issan? ;D

Beef Cake wrote on 2^nd Jun, 2013 at 6:19pm:

Laos exports to Thai, Thai exports to Hong Kong, China, others.

Isaan that's why Thailand is one of the top rice exporter. Laos just lot of mountains :)

I do not there is enough land area to commercially grow rice in Laos.  Too much rugged topography there and I would assume you need relatively flat land to do so.  I ain't no expert on growing rice but I guess I am dumbfounded to think so.

There is kind of what we call red moutain rice, highland rice, it fetches big money here.  Coffee can also be good, macedamia, sugar also good. Some chinese put some medicine oriented crops in Laos like Noni. very profitable.  If look at chinese market, traditonal chinese medicine crops planting can be very very profitable if Laos have reasonabel know how.  ;D

As of right now Vietnam is up there with Thailand when it comes to exporting Coffee beans and rice.As a matter of
fact they export alot of seafood too.I think while back they
bought alot of those Boeing Cargo plane cause they were making so much money.Heck the catfish farmer here had to
cry to the lawmaker.I think they wanted to change the name of the vietnamese catfish to a different name.They were flooding the market with em.I guess they can grow
em cheaper over there.

No sticky rice?

you label Lao Sticky Rice? no one will buy it, ;D just like we label  Baby Milk from China, no one will buy it too. That is the condition here.

Correct.  China men do not eat sticky rice and that is the reason ;D.

Let me guess, Xi Shuan Banna has significant ethnic-Lao population. If this is the case, how many would your estimate be?

We call it ethnic Thai, not Lao, yet, their writings ate more like laotians. Total population is around 1.13 million. As far as I know, 95% eat sticky rice, no imported from thai or Lao, it is local.

How far is this city from the Lao and China border?

Beef Cake wrote on 7^th Jun, 2013 at 5:36pm:

It is not a city, it is a prefecture. The major city to the border is about 60 km

Xipsongpanna that's where Tai = Lao, Shan, Tai Lue came from. Same culture, language as Lao. Land in Xipsongpanna is fertile and can grow rice, fruits all year long.

Yes that's where Lao ancestor came from. Xisongpanna, Issan, was part of Laos until 1900.

So the cutoff date to come to Laos is 1900?

Seems our ancestors were friends ;D

Yes until China decide to invade and kick tai, Shan, Lao  to Southeast Asia :D

From my history books, China had been wery weak from 1840 to 1950. I can not see why China ticked them away?
I think they were drawn away by their weird idea of being their people's king. That is why Cam, Laso, still have kings living outside of their own kingdom.
;D

Sorry for the politics, I was a lost sheep. I must find my way back to right track without politics ;D

Speaking of politics, what are the political behaviours in your city - Xipsongpanna?  How are they different to the main China poltics?

I'm no politicians and don't care too much about politics :)
