"Most of the illegal timber was exported to China, the top investor in landlocked Laos."
Who else and where else? Xhit Cheatpig was newly in Laos and "offered" some million US Dollar to build the "Infrastructure" in Laos (roads and bridges) so that the lumbers can be transported straight and undamaged to China.

Concerned citzens of Laos :

World, look! Since 1975 until the present, Laos makes every effort to censor all activities that government officials are involved. Information like this would never had been made known to the outside world. Even if the world knows, Laos will deny--do not know, not true, bad people want to harass Laos, etc..., and now, Laos seems to wake up bit by bit that lying and censoring information don't work. That is why something like this begin to emerge, but the damages had been done. And worse than anything else, poverty continues to impact ordinary citizens to the point that the poor have to be hungry.
