LAOS
"The Vietnamese plant the rice, the Cambodians watch the rice, and the Lao listen to the rice grow..."
with its area of 236,800 sq. km. and surrounded by China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand and Burma but mainly between Thailand and Vietnam. Laos is a mountainous country especially in northern side. It's climate is tropical monsoon, and it varies on the month. During May to November it's rainy season then November to April it is the start of dry season.
Laos is packed of beautiful scenery, relaxed and friendly people, great food and stunning sight, but it was not yet discovered to become a tourist attraction. Since Laos was occupied by French, they have 'vats' or temple that shows French colonial in their country. They got their independence from France in 1954. Lao and Vietamese Communist forces were in complete control by 1975.
THE LAO, is the nation's dominant people, and they are described as gentle and peace loving, but the one who governs them is an anti-Christian government. But God is evidently in control, there are maybe 3,000-4,000 Christians among them and they could be the key to bring the Gospel to the rest of Laos.
