US needs to help more to clean up the UXOs. $2 million/year that they are currently spending is not enough. These children had nothing to do with the Vietnam war and yet they are the ones suffering the consequences.

Cute kids. Too bad they live amongst UXO and other nasties.

Poor country bad governments as always, They still relies upon the viet. so, why don't the viet. come and help clean it up just for the sake of the innocent people.

God bless those children.

[laogirlfresno]

but laos could use the water to supply electricity to neighbors and get on with a better life rather than killing victims of a fruitless war...........who makes the rules in laos.

I love Unicef works to help my countrymen

and children development!

[asianrightwatcher]

Whoever made these bombs should clean it up. All the bombs dropped in Laos were made by US and Soviet Union

Well, this is a good start. But more has to be done. The local villages need more help!

in dubai UNICEF building was right next to race track where they used child jockeys for races , most of them were bough from poor families. now thats ironic

[OS253]

I've been to Dubai. They are the fastest growing Arab country in the world! Everyday there's a new skyscraper be erected. Anyway, Laos is nothing like Dubai. They don't have oil. They have disadvantaged children without a future. It's hopeless for them.

Its not hopeless, every country just cant start out to the top and grow fast. theres always a beginning, and its rough.

Here is Lao Paksong on Boliven plateau slope to Pakse. There is another Paksong on Korat plateau slope to BKK. Korat was a famous training base to train American soldiers how to survive hard life in Indochina jungles. Lao American should think about this situation.

In honesty, this is a great clip. Research shows that literacy rates for the entire country are disturbingly low. Yet, a simple lesson through storytelling is crucial.

--Thank you for sharing.
