A New Kind of New Year Pageant...

This year for Laos In The House’s annual Lao New Year #BLESSED event we decided to hold our own pageant, featuring 7 of our volunteers - and made it equally competitive to both genders - we’re calling it “Nang & Thao Songkhan”. Based on the Nang Songkhan (ນາງ ສົງກຣານ) tradition which is in turn inspired by the story of the 7 daughters of King Kabinlaphom of Lao mythological folklore, check out the full profiles of each of our pageant volunteers and see if they earn your vote!
