AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Fuel Policy: Laos reinstated higher fuel excise taxes on 24 June, raising regular gasoline to 25% (from 15%) and diesel to 5% (from 0%), with Vientiane retail prices updated the next day. Border Relations: Laos and Thailand unveiled a special border marker at Nam Ngeun–Huai Kon checkpoint to mark 75 years of diplomatic ties and highlight progress on joint border demarcation. Scam Crackdown & Cyber Crime: Regional reporting points to FATF pressure on Myanmar to act against cyber-scam compounds, while Laos remains in the wider fight against trafficking-linked fraud networks. Governance & Oversight: Vietnam and Laos audit agencies agreed to deepen cooperation on digital transformation and modernising audit work. Culture & Public Life: Fête de la Musique 2026 returns to the Institut Français du Laos with free concerts (26–28 June), and Laos–Japan scholarship support continues with a new JDS exchange of notes worth 378 million JPY.
