Ms. Souksavanh (Koud), a dedicated tailor from Tha Teng, achieved a remarkable 200% income increase—tripling her monthly revenue from 1 million to 3 million LAK—after moving her home-based business to the Huay Hae & Thateng Community Market. Specializing in traditional “Sinh” and silk shirts, she has built a loyal clientele through her steadfast commitment to honesty and punctuality.
As a key member of the Production Group and Market Saving Fund, Koud and her team now plan to transform locally woven fabrics into unique community souvenirs, such as phone bags and keychains. Her ultimate mission is to mentor the next generation, sharing her professional skills to create sustainable jobs and a brighter future for the Champasak community.
