Hmong Cultural Training. Materials may not be used without the express permission of Lao Family Community of Minnesota, Inc. Houses Each time a village moved, families had to build new houses. A traditional Hmong village had about 20 houses. There were no ceremonial or public buildings or shops of any kind. Each house was built on the ground with a dirt floor and no windows. A stove or open fire pit sat in the middle of the main room. Family bedrooms were along the wall and guests slept on a simple bamboo platform located at the end of the main room. The Hmong followed strict rules when building their houses. Every house was built so that the family living in it could see a distant mountain from either the front or back door. Before a house was built, a small hole was dug. Grains of rice were placed in the hole, one grain for each member of the family. The hole was covered for the night. If spirits moved the rice grains during the night, another location had to be found for the house. Xwm Kab (Sou Kah) was the protective house spirit. At each New Year Festival a special ceremony was held to honor this spirit who protected members of the household from illness and bad luck.

Next Laos Cultural Profile Due for launch in December 2005 Standing at the crossroads of mainland South East Asia, Laos was for some 350 years the heartland of the powerful and prosperous kingdom of Lane Xang (1353-1695). Following its subsequent disintegration into the three kingdoms of Luang Prabang, Vientiane and Champassak, the Lao territories increasingly became the arena for wider conflicts between more powerful neighbours. United and at peace since 1975, modern Laos remains a poor country, but economic reform coupled with the growth of new sources of income such as tourism and hydroelectric power are steadily improving the daily life of its citizens. The Laos Cultural Profile represents the first major attempt to map the cultural infrastructure of this fascinating and hitherto poorly-documented country. It offers a detailed sector-by-sector guide to Archives, Competitions and Awards, Ethnic Culture, Festivals, Film, Funding, Government Cultural Policy and Infrastructure, Heritage, International Exchange, Libraries, Literature, Mass Culture, Media (Broadcasting, Press, Publishing, Internet), Performing Arts, Research, Tourism, Training, Visual Arts and Youth Arts. Each of these guides concludes with a detailed directory of key contact organisations within that sector, making it possible for the reader not only to learn about what is happening in a particular cultural sector, but also to make direct contact with the key people working in it.

How This Document Was Prepared Introduction A population of 3.8 million (1987) lives in an area of 236,800 km2. The population density of 15.1 persons per km2 is one of the lowest ratio in Asia. Lao (Laotian) the official language is spoken by about two-third of the population. French is spoken widely and there are also numerous tribal languages. The principal religion is Buddhism which strongly influences the arts and literature issues. Official sources estimate that non-Laotian population, which is made-up of 65 distinct ethnic groups, counts for 40 per cent of the total population. Another feature is that 85 per cent of the population live in the countryside. The ethnic diversity of the population and the existence of communication tensions obstruct efforts to promote social and economic development. The economy is among the least developed in the world. Production is overwhelmingly agrarian.
