Lao Language Tapes
From: Belgium, US, et al.
- Where can I find tapes or CDs to help me learn the Laotian language?
 
 
Reply:

A number of people have written in asking this similar question. So we've decided to post an update on this.

The link shown here sells Lao audio cassettes to help people learn to read and pronounce Laotian. The cost however is quite prohibitive ($340 USD).

Laotian Exports in Canada
From: Canada
- I'm in Canada and I was wondering how much Canada actually imports from Laos?

Reply:

According to public government records regarding imports of Lao goods into Canada the amount is not much - it is approximately $2.9M (Cdn$) in 2001. Out of the seven Canadian corporations found to be importing Laotian products only one is an electronics goods company, while the rest are clothing and textile companies.

The list of companies is as follows: Alphi Apparel Group, Clothes Line Apparel, Clothing for Modern Times, Mark's Work Wearhouse, Mexx Canada Inc., Tommy Hilfiger Canada Inc., XIYU Electronic Canada.
