Lao PDR - Nam Ou river - The small monthly market in a remote and roadless Khmu village

The small monthly market at the Khmu village of Ban Phatao, Phongsaly province, Lao PDR. The market traders travel along the Nam Ou visiting different villages selling every kind of Chinese and Vietnamese product that one might need - like biscuits and flip flops, washing powder and salt. Ban Phatao will soon be temporarily relocated away from the Nam Ou river due to the construction of the Nam Ou Cascade Hydropower Project Dam 5.
