    I was unimpressed when he described the people as "poor". More appropriate word would be "simple". Money doesnt make a person "rich". Health and peace of mind do. I'm sure from a spiritual perspective, America can be seen as a poor country as well in terms of the violence, sexploitation, and people going crazy chasing money.

    Have lived in northern Thailand for 17 years and been to Laos many times, usually on a motorbike, but sometimes public buses or private minivans (and some hitch hiking). It's worth noting that Thailand's population is around 70 million while Laos is about 1/10th as much, and Thailand (aside from 2020 due to covid-19) receives vastly way more tourists, and is a much more financially wealthy country where as Laos is still definitely 3rd world, and the majority of tourists go to just 3-5 places (Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng, Vientiane, Pakse, 4000 Islands). Agree Laos people seem more sincere and accommodating and less money-obsessed than what you find in the touristy spots in Thailand, especially the south. Laos is a great country to do a motorbike trip as there is very little traffic outside main cities, but the road network is very limited and if you have a breakdown in the middle of nowhere you need to have spares/tools/skill in making repairs. Also bear in mind that no matter how honest and kind people are in general there are still definitely bad apples. Tourists who carry hundreds of dollars in their wallet and walk around with $1000 cameras and phones need to realize for many locals that is an unimaginable sum of money for them so it's tempting. Don't leave valuables in your guesthouse/hotel room. Keep it with you or lock it up in a safe with a receipt. Also if riding public buses in the hilly north, beware for some reason hilltribe people are prone to road sickness and puke a lot, so carry extra plastic bags to pass around ;-)

    • @therock8224
      @therock8224 4 роки тому +1

      Very good analysis. I know both countries well and you're spot on. Of course, once Laos becomes more popular with tourists, crime will increase and attitudes towards tourists will change too. Already more and more Lao are becoming very money obsessed, but this appears to be limited to the big cities (mainly Vientiane) for now.
      Hopefully the impact of Covid-19 won't last too long because both countries will suffer even more than they already have if it does.

    Isarn and Lao are the same language. The only very minor differences comes from loan words - in Laotian Lao, "beurre" meaning butter comes from the French, but in Isarn Lao they generally use "neuy", which is the Thai word. Neuy is also understood in Laos itself, but traditionally they use "beurre".
    Northern Thai and northern Lao are more similar to each other than the latter is with Vientiane Lao. For instance, someone from Chiang Rai would have zero issue communicating with someone from Bokeo just across the border.

After the French sign the treaty to give our land to Thai so they won't attack lao any more our people my people that was left had to adjust and adapt. Thai government wouldn't allow the northern lao people to call themselves lao so my people had to change and call themselves Isaan.. Thais are colonisers like the rest of the world who has power. They came in and stole our wealth our history and our identity arrest our king and let him rot in the hot sun. This happen a long time ago..

    Isaan is a dialect of Lao Vieng and Lao Dhai (Southern Lao). It’s political reasons in Thai nationalism that they lie to foreigners and won’t acknowledge this. The only difference now is Isaan is heavily mixed with Thai and Northern Kamai speech now. Thai citizens are taught a propagandist history and are taught to be very very nationalistic, like how American education system is towards the students. Most do not even know that their ancestors were brought over as slaves from the destruction of Lao Vieng Chan and Lao Champasak to build the new capital of Bangkok and populate the Western bank of the Mekong in 1828 (look up Lao Rebellion or Lao-Siamese War). This is the primary reasons why Laos is so underpopulated today with barely 4 million Lao-Tai, while Thailand has over 35 million within its modern borders.

      Isaan Thai is a Lao dialect. The Isaan region once belonged to Laos. In 1907 the French signed it over to Siam. The Thai of Isaan speak Lao but write in Thai. There are more Lao speakers in Thailand than there are in Laos. Also, the dialect spoken in Luang Prabang is the same dialect spoken in Chiang Mai.

    Very correct video. The people are very similar, especially away from the city/tourist areas. The affect of living in a communist run area is immediately apparent when you cross the border with Thailand. For Americans, Thailand is easier and far, far cheaper than Laos. 5 years experence

    Very well truthful about Laos and Lao people; very respect, nice, kind, happy and peaceful people. However, it is so sad to see foreigners take over Laos so quickly in Laos. Laos is still very much a poor country (90%) in 2019. The rich are those foreigners who can afford to buy land and do big businesses in Laos; very sad to see the natural and beauty environment destroy and trees cut down for new buildings and commercial industries. Laos is a peaceful country.
