I was roaming in the jungle for 4yrs(1978-82), compare to present day there is  NOTHING LEFT. I used been there and I knew what am I talking about.

What those who didn't known the past and know only the present, it hard to compare.

However, that was 30 years ago.  I am sure population increase led to overusage of land/trees and over killing of animals when praticing a self-sufficent lifestyle in the Jungle.  I roamed the Jungle before and I am 100% sure that same Jungle area is not the same anymore and I am definite the animal abundancy is not there as well.

This is why the country needs to get away from self-sufficient living Cool.

I agree with you on this. Currently, even with the government planting trees and other life, it's not enough compare to how much they are destroying.  Trees usually take 10-20 years to grow (still not a full length), it's not like some flower.  It makes me wonder too, what the country would look like in 15 years.

Agreed. People has to do whatever to make a living and feed their family. Another problem is only 4-5% of land in Laos is suitable for agricultural production, most are mountainous but good for hydropower.

Deforestation practice in Laos will cease (or lessen) to exist in the near future because the country has to comply or go along with the UN's and world's idealogy on anti-global warming mentality/ecosystem/wildlife preservaton.  Agree replanted trees will take many years to grow to full-length.

Deforestation and corruption also go hand in hand.

We can cross our finger and hope for the best. The fact is Laos natural resource is being exploit. Most of the timber is export to Vietnam to supported their $3 billion a year furniture business. Government trying to plan more tree.
