Not sure what kind of compensation do these poor folks are getting. I just hope they being fair with them. It like double edge sword when it come to issue like this. I feel bad for these people at the same time the future of Vientiane too.

Lao Guy from ATL :

The current Lao government is selling our land away to the Chinese and the Vietnamese. As long as their pockets are full, they don't care about the regular people or the future of Laos. Shame on them!!!

Refusing to relocate will not do any good by now. Besides this, the whole country is about to be in the hands of foreigners.
