In Focus: Elections but no “flower revolution” in Laos

Recently elections to both the National Assembly and the Party Congress have been held in Laos, one of the least developed countries in Southeast Asia.

Economic development is a top priority for the government and measures are planned to boost the development. But there are concerns about the consequences of these measures.

Kristina Jönsson, Senior Lecturer, Department of Political Science, Lund University, writes about the results of the elections and the challenges facing the government of Laos in this week’s In Focus blog on the AsiaPortal.

In the In Focus section of the AsiaPortal we address an up-to-date topic and ask a Nordic expert in this area to write a short opinion in an attached blog.

We warmly welcome researchers, students, experts and others interested in the topic to give their comments in the blog.

We would also like to form a network of people who would be interested in participating with opinions in future In Focus themes. Anyone interested can contact us on [email protected]
