Vientiane City Pillar shrine nears completion

Construction of the Vientiane City Pillar is expected to be completed soon after casting of the top finial gable began on Monday.







Craftsmen pour molten bronze into the mould for the finial gable.


Deputy Prime Minister Asang Laoly, former Prime Minister and Honorary President of the Vientiane City Pillar Construction Project Bouasone Bouphavanh, Project President Mounkeo Oraboun, and Deputy Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism Baungeun Xaphouvong attended the casting ceremony.

Casting of the 370kg finial gable, which is 6.28 metres in height, will take about 20 days to complete. It is expected to be hoisted into position on April 23.

The 15 billion kip project, financed solely by government and public funds, started in February 2010.

“The main features of the shrine are about 70 percent complete,” said the ministry's Planning and Finance Department Director General Khoun Phouthonsy, who is also a member of the committee responsible for the project.

The construction of the shrine, of which the Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism is the project owner, has been delayed for some time because some aspects of the design were not appropriate in practice. This meant improvements had to be made, which required approval from the higher authorities.

The project is located on Setthathirath Road in Phiavath village, Sisattanak district and includes both a pavillion and a shrine. It is being built on the spot where the old city pillar and other artefacts from the 4th to 5th centuries were unearthed.

The City Pillar Shrine has four facades, each facing a different direction. The structure is 25m x 25m in width and 30m high.

The building of the pavilion aims to preserve the nation's cultural heritage, encourage patriotism, and strengthen Lao customs and solidarity.

According to officials responsible for the project, construction will be completed in July and the opening ceremony will take place in September.

Champassak University expansion set to begin

The construction of campus buildings at Champassak University in the southern province is set to begin and will take a year and half to complete.







Director General of the Department of Higher Education, Dr Phonphet Boupha, and Luangpraseuth Construction Company Director, Mr Bounleuth Luangpraseuth, shake hands after signing the construction agreement.


The Ministry of Education and Sport's Higher Education Department and the contractor Luangpraseuth Construction Co., Ltd. recently signed an agreement on the terms of the project.

The buildings to be constructed include a four-storey administration building, a one-storey auditorium, a two-storey IT building, a two-storey library, 2 two-storey and 2 three-storey classroom and faculty blocks, 2 one-storey single teacher houses, 2 one-storey family teacher houses, public toilets, and toilets with showers for dormitories.

The Asian Development Bank has provided a US$5.1 million loan for the project, while the contractor is responsible for carrying out the construction.

Champassak University opened in 2003 to cater to students from the southern provinces, and is currently operating at Pakxe Technical and Vocational Schools. It has a 1,900-hectare site to develop as a campus, but lacks the necessary funding. The local authorities have built three dormitories, a guesthouse, and around 50 classrooms.

The university has about 3,000 students attending five faculties, with 700 to 800 enrolments per year.
