So. Propaganda hate against #LaoTian has begun. The rumors are that we are #wannabe #buddha #martyrs and are behind all these "fake" accidents. Yes. Including what happened in Louisiana this buddha birthday happy new year celebration in metaphor. Paying homage to lord buddha, the historical buddha.
#LaoTian the people of Asia and of the Indo-Asian-Pacific Ancestral migration plus silkroads international trade. We been doing this since the fucking ice age. Y'all just erase world history yourselves ignorant. We are all from the same family-tree not even 10,000 years old. And you know this.
The number of #Laotian immigrants then dipped to only 400 in 1977, but climbed to 8,000 in 1978.
Fully 44% of employed #Laotian Americans held jobs classified as "operators, fabricators, and laborers" in 1990.
The majority of #Laotian Americans have maintained a low profile in the United States. Consequently, few Americans have much knowledge of #Laotian culture and people and, as a result, there are few stereotypes—positive or negative—regarding #Laotian Americans
Many #Laotian Americans retain the ritual practices of their culture. The most common of all #Laotian rituals is the baci (pronounced "bah-see") or sookhwan
Many #Laotian Americans still eat Lao-style foods at home. These dishes are also available at most #Thai restaurants, since the cooking of northeastern #Thailand is almost identical to that of Laos
The median household income of #Laotian Americans in 1990 was only $23,019, compared to $30,056 for other Americans
few #Laotian American young people attend college; this may be attributed to the economic disadvantages of their families
Some #Laotian American men wear ethnic costumes at weddings, especially during the sookhwan ritual, and on stage during a maw lam performance, when actors sometimes don the sampot, or baggy trousers worn in Laos before #French occupation.
Since #Laotian Americans are such a young group, their prospects for continuing adaptation are good, especially considering the scholastic successes of #Laotian American children
Sorry. English is my first , I speak like toddler #laotian & indochine mandarin. And the voices are speakeing very very old I myself don't understand exactly, but generally. You understand? Idk the difference between ponds, lakes, springs? I just know they're talking about a body water and location.
#Hmong Americans are also passionately concerned with political events in their native land, where the Communist party that overthrew the #Laotian government remains in power today.

Early #Laotian immigrants included former government administrators, soldiers from the royal army, and shopkeepers.
As a group, #Laotian Americans are very concerned about occurrences in their homeland and many would like to return but are unable to because of Laos's communist government.
And that's the problem. We say Tong Dynasty, they say Tang Dynasty. We say #Fu, they say #Wu. We say #Lao, they say #Dao. We say #LaoTian (in homage and in the righteous way of life of Lord Lao's) they say #LaoTzu. 🙄 come on. School of mindfulness! The Chinese empire is about the righteous pathway!
