You should use the word LIKE not LOVE, people understand what you want to say but it would be FIGURE not PROPE like in French. If you want to raise this TOPIC as a Political one then LAO is a kind of being PART OF THAILAND, Thai media, thai tv thai music thai Fm radio thai song thai language....etc.
Lao is like a part of Thailand AUTOMATICALLY, without lao people don't even know about it, isn't that the other side of story you want to point out....by using this topic. Of course for the one who posted this topic.
Hope someday laos can make lot of thing I mean everything you guy don`t have to blame another seem to be no more LAOS soon inside country more chinese from china and more vietnamese from vietnam and product from thailand I don`t know in the future who gonna take laos over
Lao people don't LOVE Thai products per se, we have no choice but buying from them (Thailand). If we have all these products in our neck of the woods, I am sure we won't buy them from our neighbor country.
Do you want to see LAOS have all these products in the future ? I hope so, any entrepreneur out there ?
