A Thoughtful Package for the Lao Government: Our UPR Report on Civil and Political Freedoms Is Ready!

Our report for the fourth UPR Review, Echoes of Injustice: Civil and Political Freedoms Under Siege in Laos, is here to reveal the staggering gap between the Lao government's facade of human rights and the reality it desperately tries to hide.

The Universal Periodic Review (UPR) is essentially a beauty pageant for countries, where they showcase their so-called "best" human rights records—think of it as a glorified talent show for tyrants. Meanwhile, the Lao government smiles like it’s in a horror movie, hoping no one notices the chains on its people or the tough laws waiting in the dark.

Our report explores how they silence dissent with all the grace of a butcher at a vegan potluck. It's a chilling display of power: critics are silenced, activists are intimidated, and anyone daring to speak out finds themselves facing a well-oiled machine designed to keep the truth under wraps. In Laos, voicing an opinion is less of a freedom and more like a death sentence—metaphorically, of course.

Want to take a front-row seat to the Lao government’s greatest hits of oppression? Scan the QR code for our full report—it’s stuffed with jaw-dropping examples that will leave you questioning not just their moral compass, but their grasp on reality itself. Spoiler alert: they’re floundering in their own contradictions, and the world is watching!
