Meet Chansouk: Supporting small businesses in Lao PDR
Chansouk owns a convenience store in his village of Nam Ngow. He lives with a degenerative eye condition that prevents him from working most other jobs, but has built a flourishing business with his wife, Soua, to help support his young family. Oxfam’s livelihoods programme provided him with cash transfers that he used to add support beams and a corrugated tin roof to his shop, so that it can stay open during the rainy season. He has big plans for further expanding his business by applying for a small community grant through Oxfam’s extended programme.
