| Tlo historyczne | Modern-day Laos has its roots w the ancient Lao kingdom of Lan Xang, established w the 14th Century under King FA NGUM. For three hundred years Lan Xang had influence reaching into present-day Kambodza and Tajlandia, as well as over all of what is now Laos. After centuries of gradual decline, Laos came under the domination of Siam (Tajlandia) from the late 18th century until the late 19th century when it became part of French Indochina. The Franco-Siamese Treaty of 1907 defined the current Lao border z Tajlandia. In 1975, the Communist Pathet Lao took control of the government ending a six-century-old monarchy and instituting a strict socialist regime closely aligned to Wietnam. A gradual return to private enterprise and the liberalization of foreign investment laws began w 1986. Laos became a member of ASEAN w 1997. |

| Miedzynarodowe dyskusje | Southeast Asian states have enhanced border surveillance to check the spread of avian flu; talks continue on completion of demarcation z Tajlandia but disputes remain over islands w the Mekong River; concern among Mekong Commission members that Chiny's construction of dams on the Mekong River will affect water levels |
| Ekonomiczna pomoc - pobieranie | $379 million (2006 est.) |
| Ekonomia | The government of Laos, one of the few remaining one-party Communist states, began decentralizing control and encouraging private enterprise w 1986. The results, starting from an extremely low base, were striking - growth averaged 6% per year w 1988-2007 except during the short-lived drop caused by the Asian financial crisis beginning w 1997. Despite this high growth rate, Laos remains a country z a underdeveloped infrastructure, particularly w rural areas. It has no railroads, a rudimentary road system, and limited external and internal telecommunications, though the government is sponsoring major improvements w the road system z support from Japonia and Chiny. Electricity is available w urban areas and w most rural districts. Subsistence agriculture, dominated by rice, accounts dla about 40% of Produkt krajowy brutto and provides 80% of total employment. The economy will continue to benefit from aid from international donors and from foreign investment w hydropower and mining. Construction will be another strong economic driver, especially as hydroelectric dam and road projects gain steam. Several policy changes since 2004 may help spur growth. In late 2004, Laos gained Normal Trade Relations status z the US, allowing Laos-based producers to benefit from lower tariffs on exports. Laos is taking steps to join the Swiat Trade Organization w the next few years; the resulting trade policy reforms will improve the business environment. On the fiscal side, a value-added tax (VAT) regime, slated to begin w 2008, should help streamline the government's inefficient tax system. |
