Are you being sarcasm? I think you are!
Like Champ stated, Laos is NOT a POOR country, it is poorly managed!
You don't think the people in the developed world or your so-called "RICH nations" that when students who graduated from universities or well-known universities can find a job? Yea, everyone who graduated find a job except for country of Laos haha. Secondly, if you want to speak in term of "easy money" and prostitution look at Thailand the center hub of Asian prostititution :r-scene-pop-corn: . Oh what's the capital of Thailand again? haha. If Thailand is not a comparable country to you, look at U.S. Look at Amerstadam, France, Mexico, China,etc haha. And these countries have prostitution long before and still have prostitution today. Oh wait thats right these countries don't have prostitutions. Oops! my bad! They are rich and perfect nations! Thirdly, if countries are dumb (wait I should say generous) enough to donate and gave them grants why not take. Afterall, it doesn't have to be pay off. Reality check, the developed or undeveloped nations received assistance from other nations as well; otherwise there will be no such associations. To better the world is to join hand and help!
Overall, some people can't grasped the point or see that Laos is better than other countries, even though it is rated by the "Western" standard as a poor country {don't feel like repeating what other stated already}.
Sarcastic me ? yeah sure, sometimes i am :drool: ... and i feel sorry if what i said seems politically incorrect in to ur eyes...
First of all, i never said or denied what Champ said... that [Laos] is poorly managed....
Oh my dear... Where did i write about rich "
nations" huh :huh: ?? i never mentioned that word, i think u misunderstand me when i make an allusion to "high so"... it doesnt mean at all rich nations, not in my previous context... Don't mix up things together plz... lol
That's funny the way u r trying to turn what i said against myself... lol... but that's okie...
Well, as u said.. it was a
sarcastic view, yeah, my sarcasms, and never meant to generalise things or take it as too seriously for ppl who read it...
Now let me ask you something Chonny...
1) Do u have friends at the NUOL ?? friends who just finished their study and dare to tell u that they worry about finding no job ? or asking ur help/advices to build their first CV and cover letter without that much experiences ? Who asking u about interview techniques because they want to have scholarship to study abroad for a better future ?
2) Have you been to Savannakhet and the situations about human traffic, the young girls who went to Thailand with the hope of a better future... and later one come back with AIDS and wait their last hours of living ?? Or just even had a chance to meet or talk with ppl. who work for Medecin Sans Frontiere in Savannakhet ??
3) Have you been involved or just simply have discussions with ppl. who work for NGOs in Laos ? they did a wonderful job for laos.
I personally had a chance to meet a consultant who wrote up a project to get an EU fund to help Laos...and before i left Laos, he was hired by the World Bank, and his project a success, isn't it wonderful for Laos ??
Finally, thanks for being ironic... Lol... I love when ppl. compare Laos with USA, France, Amsterdam, China, Mexico, Thailand in term of prostitution lol...
I am not against prostitution at all, Lol... but more in human condition...
I am not against high-so ppl. but their decadence when it comes especially to the gov. ppl. who should first contribute to the welfare of its ppl. rather than spending $$$$ in their selfish desire of luxuries things and so on....
Laos is not poor, it is rich, and even poor managed it's still rich with its decadence.... ^_^
