Last Message 6 hours, 6 minutes ago- Darly : Good morning all. Happy Friday and long weekend for 4th of July.
- Darly : Ginger: Boun Khao Phansa is coming up on the 17th in Laos.
- Ginger : Good Morning Everyone
- Ginger : celebrating in Laos sounds good.
- Ginger : Darly: as for scaring of ghost, I might be all talk. lol.
- Darly : Ginger: Maybe we can celebrate in Laos later for my degree.
- Darly : The night to not camp out is on the night of Boun Horkhao Padapdin. That's when you're most likely to run into ghosts they said. But you're the brave one.
- Darly : Ginger: Ghost story? Don't scare people off now. Then again I've heard really scary stories from my Grand-Mama about ghosts wandering at Pee Pa Sa behind my Grandmother's backyard. So, don't build a house with pee pa sa on the other side of your wall.
- Darly : Good morning all. Tomorrow is 4th of July. Have a good and productive day at work for those of you that are not taking off early.
- Ginger : Darly: Congratulations on your degree, I'm very happy for you.
- Ginger : I heard that there was a real scary ghost story last year, the light went out for a couple of hours. I need to do some investigation.
- Ginger : Darly: I betcha if Crash would have come, you’d book your next flight. I got my tent, and camping gear.
- Darly : Lots of pics from Boun Pha Vet.
- Darly : Or else it might be fun to camp out at pee pa sar for a night.
- Darly : Ginger: Yeah, I was thinking "Nye lazy? Can't be". Enjoy your trip to the festival at Wat Lao Buddavong. Too bad I am a poor grad-student and can't afford the tickets to your neighborhood.
- Darly : Good morning all. Happy Friday and long weekend for 4th of July.

This is looking a lot nicer than some of the housing here in the US, but I can’t help to feel that it’s turning into a city living, If I was living in Laos, I’d prefer to live in the countryside than living in the city. Would this type of town home be considered the working class or upper class community?
Ginger,
I would rather live in the countryside too.
Did Darly said this style of home goes for nice 100k?
You got to be a rich Lao person to own or afford that. I would expect something like this in Vientiane but not Pakse.
Hi Ginger and Dallas,
I read in the Vientiane Times newspaper about these apartments awhile back and it was the goal of the local government to provide affordable housing for Pakse residents. According to the newspaper the apartment is listed for 100 millions Kip and that’s less than 10,000 Euros. They have a payment plan for those that can’t afford to pay full payment and also an option to re-sell the apartment back for those that can’t afford to continue living there. If I remember correctly, there should be a little over 400 apartment units available.
Too bad I am a poor student or else I would buy one facing the Mekong River.
it’s seem like things are looking better in laos these day.
