I am really against this.
If we want to pay respect for the unknown soldiers we should make this more respectful. Something better than a shop to sell junk to tourists.

They are greedy, they consider money is more important than the souls of the unknown soldiers.

as i recall, the place was for storing the unknow soldiers' bones.
the place known as anousavary or unknown heroe destination.
where they move all of the respected heroes' bones to ?
i don't think that is the good idea for commercial at this place period.

What's next, gift shop inside the wall of That Luang?  All these times, I thought that this monument was build to honor those who sacrificed their lives to free Laos from the French.  
Now a day, we are willing to sell our soul for a few bucks.
