Food Prices Affect Families in Laos Despite Easing Inflation

"While inflation has eased since early 2023, Laos still has one of the highest inflation rates in the world. The national currency continues to lose value against foreign currencies, driving up the cost of many imported products that Lao consumers depend on. Average household incomes rose by 11.5 percent between May 2022 and May 2023, but year-on-year inflation stood at around 36 percent over the same period, while 54 percent of families reported unchanged or declining incomes."

Me too i want to retire in Laos

Thank you, yes my wife says similar things about prices.

And I guess I'm going to be in for some sticker shock when I make the move in '24.

My Lao family tells me that living costs are continually rising, albeit a little at a time.

We are lucky in that we get rice sent to us from family growers in Champassak.

Every little bit helps.
