寮國農村發展──國際貿易和中國影響
Rural Development in Laos: The Impact of International Trade and Chinese Influence
摘要
寮國是一個以農業為基礎的發展中國家，其中農村人口占總人口的70%以上。近年來，寮國政府積極推動農業發展策略，旨在提升農民的收入並降低貧困率。自1986年以來，寮國實施了一系列經濟改革，這些改革的目標是將社會主義經濟轉型為市場經濟。在此轉型過程中，國際貿易和中國影響力是關鍵因素。本研究深入探討了寮國農村發展的現狀、趨勢以及面臨的機遇，特別強調了國際貿易和中國投資的影響。透過文獻分析方法，來源包括了學術論文、世界銀行報告和統計數據等。研究認為，中國在寮國農村發展過程中扮演了重要的角色，寮國對中國投資的依賴日益增加，不但促進了當地經濟發展，也顯著改變了農家的生計策略和農村地區發展的面貌。

The Lao People's Democratic Republic is primarily an agricultural country with over 70% of its population living in rural areas. The government has pursued agricultural development plans to boost farmers' income and reduce poverty. Laos has implemented economic reforms since 1986 to transform its socialist economy into a market economy, with international trade and China's influence being crucial factors in this process. This study offers an in-depth examination of the current state, trends, and opportunities of rural development in Laos, focusing specifically on the impact of international trade and Chinese investment. Utilizing a literature review methodology that includes academic journal articles, World Bank reports, and statistical data, the paper highlights the critical role of China in transforming the agricultural sector and rural communities in Laos. It illustrates how increased reliance on Chinese investments not only fosters economic growth but also reshapes the livelihood strategies of rural households and the overall rural landscape, making China's involvement indispensable to Laos's ongoing economic development efforts.
