Lao National Assembly voices concerns over loss of state lands
VIENTIANE (Vientiane Times/ANN) – National Assembly members supported the amendment of the land law but expressed concerns about the continuing loss of state lands and conversion of agricultural land into other classifications.
During the debate at the ongoing session, members learned about many state lands under government sector management having been transferred into individual ownership. This could affect long-term national development when the government needs land for the expansion of infrastructure and public space.
