DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES

Blog article from Intermediate 2 Class at LEOT

This is a discussion about the development 

of Human Resources

Resources are very important to the economic development of our country and to our society culturally. There are two kinds of resources:

• Natural Resources
• Human Resources

Human resources are very important in the development of our economy and society, especially in cultural areas. Why does our group here at LEOT English Language Centre in Luang Prabang in Lao PDR say this? Because we believe that human resources are helped by education – in gaining knowledge and experience that also helps the important hand skills – to make houses, hospitals, airports, roads and bridges. All of these things are made by human resources – not made by natural resources such as buffalos, cows or chickens.

Our group thinks there are many people who would like to know the answer to this question:

 “Who is the human resource”?

The human resource is every person in the world – you; me; all of us. 

We also believe that human resource development has two main points:

• Education
• Public Health

The LEOT School

On education it is very essential to development of economic and cultural well being. Everyone should be acknowledged in this either for their knowledge or their hand skills. We would like to ask every person: “How can we get knowledge or where is knowledge to come from”? We get knowledge from education; therefore education is very essential for the development of human resources. The Government of Laos PDR tried to expand education from the city to the

countryside and tried to give the hill tribes education. The purpose is to eradicate illiteracy on Laos PDR 

On public health it is very essential to have too. Because strong health is part of the country’s development and is just as important as education. If we have education we are clever but if we don’t have strong health it doesn't have meaning and the country cannot be developed.

Therefore all of us have to try to study hard; research many subjects, especially English language because English is an international language and is used everywhere at the present time and we have to use our knowledge to be useful and we also have to remember “Healthcare”.

Education and good health are inseparable – you can’t have one without the other!

Luang Prabang World Heritage Town

Welcome to Luang Prabang, the UNESCO World Heritage Town where you can see a lot of things about Lao traditions and customs and which all identify with the materials and thoughts from the ancient times to the present times of the civilisation and which have been well kept

Luang Prabang residents are very proud of having much goodwill and friendship to show to guests and are always willing to offer hospitality in a spirit of politeness. Luang Prabang residents are modest and etiquette is important in talking to visitors and we try to talk about the present times as well as older times and we take this very seriously so that when people leave our city they will have a better understanding of the people who live here as well as looking at the beauty of Luang Prabang.

Luang Prabang has many interesting festivals such as Lao New Year Festival, boat racing festivals; festivals celebrating the teachings of the Buddha and festivals that celebrate the birth, death and attainment of Buddha. There are also ancestor festivals, Buddhist Lent and special celebrations at the end of Buddhist Lent. The festival that most visitors to Luang Prabang seem to know about it Pi Mai and it is also the favourite festival of the students who prepared this article about Luang Prabang for you.

We hope you enjoy reading this information about Luang Prabang prepared by the following students from
