Authorities in several provinces across Laos have recently destroyed significant quantities of expired, counterfeit, and illegal consumer goods in an effort to protect public health and ensure compliance with national regulations.

On 8 May, the Office of Industry and Commerce in Mai District, Phongsaly Province, destroyed a range of non-compliant products, including expired, substandard, untaxed, and prohibited items. 

Following inspections of 30 wholesale and retail stores, officials confiscated 46 products across seven categories, with a total value of LAK 23 million (approximately USD 1,062). The destroyed goods included food, beverages, cosmetics, engine oil, lubricants, and various other consumer items.

Earlier, on 9 April, the Office of Industry and Commerce in Ton Phueng District, Bokeo Province, incinerated 23 expired and counterfeit products valued at LAK 24 million (approximately USD 1,108). 

Similarly, on 10 April, in Hongsa District, Xayaburi Province, authorities destroyed expired and substandard products after conducting a week-long inspection of 102 locations. These included convenience stores, minimarts, frozen food outlets, and shops located within schools. 

During this operation, 65 items classified as expired, illegal, or prohibited, ranging from snacks and instant noodles to cosmetics and beverages, were seized and destroyed. The total estimated value of the goods was LAK 6.6 million (USD 305).

On 24 April, the Luang Namtha District Health Office in Luang Namtha Province carried out a similar operation, destroying expired and deteriorated consumer goods found in 86 stores across the district. 

These products included candy, soft drinks, noodles, milk, and powdered food items, with a total value exceeding LAK 25.9 million (approximately USD 1,196).

Earlier in the year, on 8 January, the Food and Drug Control Committee in Xieng Kho District, Houaphanh Province, disposed of expired products seized from 150 stores. 

Among the destroyed items were soft drinks, milk, instant noodles, sweets, and various cosmetics, including soaps, powders, creams, and lotions. The total value of these items was nearly LAK 7 million (USD 415).

Rising Prices in Laos Push More into Self-Employment, Work Abroad, World Bank Says

Lao Minister Proposes New Employment Law to Safeguard Workers' Rights and Boost Job Market

World Bank Lao PDR – Inflation in Laos is eroding living standards and reshaping the job market, according to the latest World Bank Household Monitoring Survey.

To cope with rising prices, more people are working, but with wages not keeping up with inflation, workers are turning to self-employment and migration to help support their families.

The tenth round of the World Bank’s Rapid Monitoring Phone Surveys, conducted across Laos from January to February  2025, shows that employment  has steadily increased over the past four years , with the proportion of respondents reporting working in January 2025 at 97.1 percent, up from 94.4 percent in June 2024 and from 88.2 percent in May 2022.

An increasing number of women have entered the workforce, with the gender employment gap narrowing significantly from 8 percent in December 2022 to just 1.9 percent in January 2025.

At the same, high inflation, currency depreciation, and declining real wages have persuaded many workers to shift from service jobs to agriculture, from wage employment to self-employment, or to leave Laos.

Thanks to tight monetary policy and foreign exchange controls, inflation has slowed, falling from 26.2 percent in mid-2024 to 11.2 percent in March 2025.

The rate remains high though, and many households are in a weakened financial situation after several years of continued price increases.

“The transformation of the labor market in Laos is astonishingly quick,” said Alex Kremer, World Bank Country Manager for Laos. “Three years of high inflation and currency depreciation have reshaped work choices, eroded household living standards, accelerated migration, and undermined human capital development. The findings of this survey suggest that families have depleted their assets and may eventually run out of coping mechanisms.”

Wage growth is steady, standing at 13 percent in December 2024, while the decline in real wages slowed from 11.2 percent in 2023 to 3.9 percent in 2024. Profit growth among non-farm family businesses has also slowed, falling behind wage growth.

Average profits increased by 7.4 percent in the year to December 2024, below both the annual wage growth rate of 13 percent and the year-on-year inflation rate of 16.9 percent.

In rural areas, households continue to expand agricultural activities and are selling more produce as returns from farming remain higher than those from non-farm businesses.

Labor migration continues, with workers seeking better opportunities and higher wages abroad. A third of the number of migrants reported in January 2025 left Laos in 2024.

The money Lao workers earn abroad supports household incomes at home: 8.6 percent of surveyed households received remittances in 2024, at an average of LAK 22.9 million (USD 1,057) annually, equivalent to about 76 percent of the annual minimum wage.

To deal with high food prices, many households have resorted to using their savings, selling livestock or other assets, or borrowing. These strategies are depleting family assets, weakening future resilience and income-generating capacity.

A third of households report reducing their spending on health and education. As a result, children from poorer families are more likely to be out of school: 11.4 percent of school-age children from low-income households were not enrolled in January 2025, more than double the 4.5 percent rate among children from better-off families.

Vietnam Revives Nuclear Power Plans in New Energy Pact with Russia

Vietnam is reigniting its nuclear energy ambitions through a new partnership with Russia, as both countries agreed to accelerate talks on building nuclear power facilities in the Southeast Asian nation.

In a joint statement released after Vietnamese President To Lam’s official visit to Moscow, the two governments committed to quickly finalizing and signing agreements that would see Russia assist in the development of nuclear plants in Vietnam, Reuters reported on 12 May.

These facilities will be built using advanced technologies and will adhere strictly to safety standards for nuclear and radiation protection.

The move signals Vietnam’s renewed commitment to diversifying its energy sources amid rising demand and rapid economic growth.

The country had previously shelved its nuclear power plans nearly ten years ago, citing financial and safety concerns. Now, with energy needs climbing, nuclear is back on the table as part of Vietnam’s long-term power strategy.

Government plans indicate that Vietnam aims to bring its first nuclear plants, capable of generating up to 6.4 gigawatts, online between 2030 and 2035. Officials have been in discussions with several nations, including Japan, South Korea, France, the US, and Russia, to explore opportunities for collaboration in the nuclear sector.

In addition to nuclear cooperation, the joint statement outlined plans to deepen bilateral ties in oil and gas. Russia will supply Vietnam with crude oil and liquefied natural gas, while both sides will support the expansion of their national energy companies across each other’s markets.

Vietnam National University to Cut Bachelor’s Degree Duration to Three Years

Vietnam National University, Hanoi (VNU-Hanoi) aims to introduce a new undergraduate model, reducing the standard study duration from four to three years, starting in 2025. 

As part of this reform, VNU-Hanoi will pilot an internationally standardized three-year bachelor’s program, aiming to train 500 to 1,000 high-quality students annually. 

The university, one of Vietnam’s leading higher education institutions, announced the initiative on 13 May, following a comprehensive benchmarking process against global academic standards.

The restructured model introduces a three-semester academic year, replacing the current two-semester system, and offers students more flexibility to personalize their learning pathways. 

Outstanding students may complete their degrees in just 2.5 years and transition directly into doctoral programs, bypassing the traditional requirement for a master’s degree.

The program also emphasizes technology-enhanced learning, incorporating digital tools and artificial intelligence (AI). Instruction will be delivered through a variety of methods, including in-person classes, online learning, supervised self-study, group projects, and individualized study plans.

From the beginning of their university experience, students will be encouraged to join faculty-led research groups to develop research competencies and academic skills early on.

While political theory and general education courses will continue to be taught in Vietnamese, specialized courses and graduation theses will be conducted in English. This shift aligns with Vietnam’s national objective of establishing English as a second language in schools by 2035.

The initiative builds on VNU-Hanoi’s earlier effort, VNU 12+, a talent incubation program targeting high school students. Participants in this program will have a pathway into the new international bachelor’s track. 

With 12 member schools, VNU-Hanoi plans to enroll over 20,000 students this year, marking the largest intake of any higher education institution in Vietnam.

PSB Academy launches S$2.1m Beyond60 initiative to fully fund education scholarships for 30 recipients selected through the Singapore Centre for Social Enterprise, raiSE, United Women Singapore, and Care Corner Singapore

Joint efforts to champion greater inclusivity and access to education including for youths at risk, workforce pursuing social causes and women pursuing Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) align with SG60’s theme of “Building Our Singapore Together”


SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 15 May 2025 – PSB Academy (PSBA), Singapore’s leading private education institution (PEI), today announced its over S$2.1 million initiative as it spearheads advocacy for education to be inclusive, and to provide equal opportunities for all. This is in celebration of Singapore’s 60th birthday which focuses on shared values such as boldness, resilience, and openness to unite and progress against the odds over the past six decades. It embodies PSBA’s Beyond60 commitment, empowering individuals to look forward, craft their future, and truly “write your own next 60”.

Through the PSB Academy Beyond60 Scholarships initiative PSBA and its university partners will award full scholarships to up to 30 deserving recipients selected by the Singapore Centre for Social Enterprise, raiSE Ltd (raiSE), and United Women Singapore (UWS), and Care Corner Singapore. The scholarships will cover the course of their educational programme which may range from six months to four years, depending on the course selected.

The Scholarships for raiSE social enterprises aim to strategically strengthen capabilities of leaders within the sector, enabling a multiplier effect that deepens and scales the positive impact on the communities they empower. The partnership with UWS will provide young women from local polytechnics the opportunity to pursue higher education in STEM and/or other related disciplines. Similarly, the collaboration with Care Corner will support youths preparing for their N and O Levels, those in Nitec, and at-risk youths, helping them achieve their academic aspirations.

Scholarships will be awarded in multiple tranches for recipients to commence their courses from as early as second half of this year and as late as December 2026.

“PSB Academy, raiSE, UWS, and Care Corner are united by a single, common goal of providing equal opportunities for Singaporeans to progress. We will together identify well-deserving individuals to receive these scholarships, individuals who may otherwise not have the resources to pursue further education to develop their skills and capabilities. As Singapore continues to grow, we must ensure that prosperity extends to more members of the community. It is only when we progress together, that we truly succeed as a society,” said Derrick Chang, Chief Executive Officer, PSB Academy.

Recognising the significant growth in public awareness of social enterprises in Singapore (from 13% in 2010[1] to 72% by 2020[2]), raiSE aims to inspire a wider adoption of these impactful business models. Guided by the principle that good business delivers positive impact, empowering leaders is key. These scholarships strategically equip both new and experienced leaders with the essential expertise, strategic foresight, and valuable networks required for impactful development and sustainable expansion within Singapore’s social enterprise landscape.

raiSE firmly believes that social enterprises represent the future of business. Partnering with PSB Academy on these scholarships is a strategic investment in the human capital driving this change. By enhancing the capabilities of the qualifying Social Enterprise founders, we are directly fueling their ability to build sustainable and impactful businesses that address critical social needs in Singapore,” said Alfie Othman, Chief Executive Officer, raiSE.

“Empowering young women in underrepresented fields like STEM is key to building an inclusive, progressive society. While progress has been made in Singapore, there’s more to do. That’s why partnerships like ours with PSB Academy are so important – we’re closing the gap by equipping young women with the tools, access, and confidence to thrive,” said Tan Ching Ne, President of United Women Singapore.

“Some young people take longer to discover their aspirations or may not thrive within conventional academic routes. This collaboration offers them a crucial second chance — an alternate pathway to pursue higher education and build a better future for themselves. At Care Corner, we believe that with the right support, every youth has the potential to thrive. We hope this scholarship will open doors for those who simply need an opportunity to catch up, keep going, and dream big.” said Christian Chao, Chief Executive Officer, Care Corner Singapore.

In 2023, around 17,000 youth[3], aged 15 to 24, in Singapore were not in school, work or training.

Later this year, PSBA will organise a celebration to officially recognise and award scholarships to the recipients.

All certifications and Diplomas offered by PSBA, as well as Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees by the Academy’s university partners are from the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand. This includes Coventry University, University of Hertfordshire, Edinburgh Napier University, La Trobe University, the University of Newcastle Australia, Edith Cowan University, and Massey University.

Applications for scholarships through raiSE, UWS, and Care Corner are now open and will close 31 December 2025. Interested applicants are encouraged to contact raiSE, UWS, and Care Corner directly to learn more about eligibility requirements and the application process.

Building upon its legacy of 60 years of excellence, PSBA celebrated its Diamond Jubilee Anniversary last year by supporting over 2,000 adult learners in Singapore with more than S$3.5 million in Diamond Jubilee Education Grants for upskilling and reskilling.

In the coming months, PSBA will be hosting a series of public engagement activities to cultivate a more inclusive and accessible learning environment. These activations will invite all members of the public to participate in hands-on experiences across the various disciplines offered at the Academy. By fostering greater community involvement, the Academy aims to showcase the core values of accessibility and inclusivity that define it as Asia’s Future Academy. Further details regarding these activities will be provided in due course.

In April 2025, PSBA unveiled its third city campus in Singapore at The Cathay as well as inking an Memorandum of Understanding to offer industry-relevant programmes in collaboration with Coventry University and COSEM, a cooperative of Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) to train more paramedicine professionals to address the nation’s ricing emergency call volumes and workforce shortages.
