What are the police like in Laos?
« on: September 21, 2018, 12:25:19 PM »
I’ve heard from many people (both Hmong Americans and Hmong Lao) that if somebody do you wrong and you’re going to the police for help don’t bother if you don’t have money. But if you have money they are very quick to help you. And that the police will even arrest and  put an innocent person in jail for you if you pay them.

Corruption is nothing new in the undeveloped countries.

I stay away from countries where the authorities can be bought with a few hundred or thousand dollar.  There are too many other places in the world to see that are safer.

Even tourist destination like Acapulco is corrupted.  2000+ murders last year.  The Mexican army just invaded that city and
Arrested a few official.  Two cop charged with murder.  The whole judicial system were taken down. 

Read more about it in the news.
