Good to know there is, as there are no ATMs in Si Phan Don and we won't be going to Pakse centre at all.

A certain population will feel the pinch of declining commerce - probably. :(eye in the skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00172970161842361404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5899135502350050025.post-33119609147995350722012-07-06T22:02:06.227+08:002012-07-06T22:02:06.227+08:00It's true that before they built the beautiful...It's true that before they built the beautiful building at the Chong Mek border that you could just walk into Lao without a visa to shop.
