To all readers,
My name is Ladsami Phonesavanh, the writer who wrote
many articles posted in the Hmong Voice website. Today I respond to all of your
comments and/or complain to the Hmong Voice. First of all, I thank you very
much for your time to pull and read the articles from the Hmong Voice website.
Your reading and response to the articles has a great impact and great contribution
to the Hmong Voice and me. It is a part of your study, your nerves, and your
information I believe.
The articles were written according to the information
I gathered from the news sources, mostly from secret sources. No matter it was
true or not it came from the secret source, which I could not fully reveal all
information to you. I took a risk to bring up such information to the public
which is some of them are still in secret classification. I travel from the
north to the south of Laos whenever I heard something I gathered that
information and wrote down then sent to someone unknown name in the U.S. to
help post it for you all who want to read. I did not lean on any side or
another. I wrote according to the information I got from. For example, I did
not take the present Laotian government's side, nor I take the Laotian in
exiles' side, nor any particular ethnic group. So, some article might hurt
Hmong a lot and some other article might hurt Lao a lot.
The very purpose to bring up such information to you,
the readers or general public, is to let you know about something that happened
or will happen to our fellows Laotian in the country as well as those who live
abroad. This is helping to block, reduce, or change the plan of the actors who
want to do something badly to others. For example when my article
"Vietnamese Troops
Relocated In Laos Worry Thailand" was posted,
Thailand might not believe at the time but later some of Thai Border Security
agent said, "We are ordered to prepare." And you can see the tension
along Thai-Lao border exists.
The Hmong Voice just simply posts the news. I am the
one who responsible for the whole contents. I asked "that someone unknown
name" in the U.S. to ask Hmong Voice for a permission to post the
articles. Hmong Voice accepts to post the news but they do not responsible for
the contents.
The reason why there was no writer's name on the
article because of a safety and security matter.
All the readers must understand that Lao Lum, Lao
Kang, Lao Soung are all Laotians. We do not discriminate against each other or
isolate one another. News is news!
Someone commented about the Royal Family that I wrote
I must tell you that it is a long story and secret still. Now the Royal Family
still campaign worldwide but their hope may not be reached. Because of their campaign and visit Thailand last
year made one of their strong supporter back home in Laos now is gone into
exile. I just do not want to reveal their whole secret. Even you are royally to them or not you must
be reasonable to look farther in the Laotian people's future. I do not mean that monarchy system is not
good but I must take people's vision, which they talk about their future of
freedom and democracy.
In respond to Dr. Pobzeb Vang, I cannot provide
further information for you due to security reason and their national security
reason. Something was already happened and they may change their own plan. It
is good to block such ugly acts. Too
bad for Hmong in Tham Krabok is also too bad for Laos.
The articles are not a political campaign for any
special group or party but to reveal the ugly acts of the actors to the public
and it is a part of warning to all people.
I have a difficulty to reach Hmong Voice because it
must go through several level or unknown people. Some other urgent news and
very secret news like drug trade, I get it but can't go through, and sometime
Hmong Voice or the unknown people do not want to post it. We need more cooperation
so we can update news to public more quickly.
I accept your criticism.
I have thought that I would send some news or information
to the "Radio Free Asia" but I am concerned about my personal
security.
Thank again.
