Secondary school in Luang Prabang, Laos


School: If there's any country where education is the key to uplifting the standard of living, it's Laos. I dropped by at this secondary school in Luang Prabang. Like most schools in the region, I could just cycle in and say hello to the students and staff.


Peering into a classroom, I noticed that it was quite large. Although there was no teacher in the classroom, the students numbering about 50 were well-behaved.

Since they learn English, the students spoke the language though not so fluently.

  2. In China it's 80 per class. Wish our boys and girls are more simple.

  3. Heard from PRC people that their classes, though big, are well-behaved. Wonder if this is generally true.
