Foreign aids to Lao come in different forms. Cash one weights not too much. Money laundering with banks is naive one, maybe sophisticated one in developing country.

127 banks is not enough for competition considering outsiders runnig saliva. 127 has more branches?  then, 127 will be fine.

carry trade profiting depends one costs of borrowing and exchange rate and costs of transfering to home country. Even 7% gap wont make a profit.

I think Laotians are rich, one bottle of beer lao here costs 1.2 USD, today's exchange rate, buying rate. That puzzles me most.

Hmm..$1.20 per bottle - that is high and probably in a restaurant targeting 'foreigners'?

127 branches of course... How many bank companies are government owned anway?  Hopefully there will be more 'privately' owned company to allow better competition.

Perhaps it's an 'export' product in Chaina..that's why it's $1.27.
