Khamphoui Sisavatdy

Khamphoui Sisavatdy graduated with a Bachelor of Arts or in Education from Buddhism (Theravada Buddhism to be specific) University in Bangkok, Thailand in 1964. From 1964 to 1972 he became a Teacher at the Buddhist Institute, Wat Ong Teu Mahawihan, a branch of Sisavangvong University. He taught Buddhist Teachings ( Theravāda Abhidhamma ) General Psychology and Adolescent Psychology.

When the Royal Lao Government in Exile (RLGE) was proclaimed on 6 May 2003, Khamphoui became its first Prime-minister. Khampoui condemned the 2006 Laotian parliamentary election and called for international pressure on Laos to install a democracy.[1]

Khamphoui sees a constitutional monarchy as the best form of government for Laos,[2] and that the Lao PDR's current government is dictatorial, and a puppet state of Vietnam. Khamphoui further believes that the Laotian people should be enabled to create the administration of their choice, and that the LPRP’s rule will eventually end, as more and more people will want to see beyond the “curtain” of an isolated society.[3]
