dddave Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Some other travel boards are carrying reports that all Lao borders will be closed, and intercity travel suspended during the ASEAN conference, July 20 to July 30. Apparantly they did this last year, so it's not un-precidented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Encore Posted July 17, 2005 Report Share Posted July 17, 2005 Can anyone give me a reference to the original of this? I had planned to cross into Lao on the 21 July. Does this also refer to foreign Lao residents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checkedd on the Embassy Post's, can;t see how ANY country would close for 10 days, seems impossible DOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
