Fifty years ago, under the leadership of the Lao People’s Revolutionary Party (LPRP) headed by President Kaysone Phomvihane, the Lao people rose up in revolution, seized power, overthrew the monarchy, and completely liberated the country from feudal, imperialist, and colonial domination, leading to the founding of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic. 

The parade commemorating the 50th Anniversary of Laos National Day is one of the largest events ever in the land of a million elephants, featuring national defense and security forces, ministries, ethnic communities, and aerial displays by helicopters and fighter jets. The event marks a historical milestone, showcasing national unity and Laos' international friendship./.
