About the importance of the Mekong for Laos.
The Laotians are very intelligent in their use of the river. We were there during the dry season, and the river banks of the Mekong, just revealed by the lowering levels of the waters, had been turned into apparently fertile pieces of agricultural terraces. The lowerr on the banks you looked, the younger the vegetation was. On the lowest slopes, you could sometimes only see the holes of planted seeds. These terraces only last for a few months though, come the rainy season and they will be wiped out by the rising Mekong. That's why people were frantically working the lands, carrying water up from the river to irrigate their newly planted vegetables and fruits.
