"Since signing a 99-year lease in 2007, Kings Romans says it has spent hundreds of millions of dollars transforming this remote corner of northern Laos into an oasis of hotels, shops, massage parlours and banquet halls, all dominated by the casino's colossal golden crown.
According to local press reports, Kings Romans plans to add shopping malls, industrial zones, and an international airport, all in the hope of boosting economic growth in this impoverished nation of seven million. But critics say the enclave - three times the size of Macau - has instead become a semi-lawless zone where gambling (the legal status of which is ambiguous as there is a ban on "forbidden gambling"), prostitution, and other illicit trades flourish."
Want some wine made out of endangered tiger bones to go with your prostitute and roulette? This is your place.
Nice guys:
"In a 2015 report, the London-based Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) described the zone as "a lawless playground" and a free-for-all "illegal wildlife supermarket".
The report described wildlife boutiques stocking items such as ivory and tiger skins, and a restaurant that sold tiger meat and Hu Gu Jiu - tiger-bone wine - from a liquor-filled tank holding a complete tiger skeleton."
Basically this is why the globalists are so anti-borders. It facilitates their money-grubbing. No borders = no law enforcement.
"Douglas said that semi-autonomous enclaves like the Special Economic Zone and Mong La in Myanmar remained "grey areas" for law enforcement. "They're so close to here, but so far away, so off the grid," he said.
Macky Sutthivong, the souvenir seller, said that despite many locals benefiting from the influx of tourist dollars, he is worried that his government's support is creating "a little China" on the Mekong. "They want to get more people from China," he said. "They want this area to be a Chinatown permanently."
