Last update: 8 hours ago

Drug Trafficking Probe: Philippine authorities have issued 40 subpoenas over a 521kg meth shipment seized at Luang Prabang airport, and lawmakers are preparing to examine the case. Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla says there is no evidence linking the Duterte family to the shipment. Human Trafficking: Laos reported 45 cases, 119 suspects arrested and 86 victims rescued, including 71 children. Officials say traffickers exploit fake job offers, social media and illegal online scam centres. Finance: Laos raised US$500 million through its second international dollar bond offering, with the 9.625% notes due in 2032. Tourism: IHG plans to open a 101-room Holiday Inn Resort in Luang Prabang in 2027. Climate: Lao officials and development partners are coordinating national priorities ahead of COP31, including climate finance, adaptation and clean energy.
