High-Quality Laotian Coffee Beans Appearing in the "Original"

However, this forgotten land is rapidly developing precisely due to coffee cultivation.

Upon reaching the plateau, guided by our interviewee, we toured his proud coffee plantation. He pointed to the endless coffee trees, describing them with a smile as a "coffee skyline"—like the skyline of a city, but referring to coffee trees stretching as far as the eye could see. During our casual conversation, he frequently mentioned how much money and effort he had invested to transform his plantation into its current neat appearance with trees spaced exactly 3 meters apart. Combined with the plateau's flat terrain and the use of expensive imported machinery, harvesting is now faster and better compared to previous methods and those used in other high-altitude growing regions worldwide. This is why more and more foreign companies are investing in the plateau. After processing, the harvested beans are sent through high-tech computerized bean sorters, creating the rare and precious Laotian coffee available on the market...

Hearing all this constantly challenged my understanding as a consumer. The so-called traditional industry of Laotian ethnic minorities has transformed—most household growers have become workers in large corporate plantations, and the production process has long adapted to trends through continuous improvements via human effort and technology. Moreover, most Laotian workers employed in these plantations must continuously learn new coffee evaluation knowledge to ensure Laotian coffee can secure its place in the vast high-quality coffee bean market. This bears no resemblance to the "original" concept I had heard about.

For investors, pristine, untouched land cannot guarantee coffee growth; only planned, large-scale production can ensure product quality. Such changes may be drastic, even somewhat shocking to our eyes. The promised pure, flawless Laos, like a blank sheet of paper, is continuously undergoing various forms of crude development. However, local residents are immersed in joy, and even the government looks forward to the changes brought by coffee beans, hoping this high-value crop can attract more foreign investment, generate more income, and thereby drive local development.

A Changing Landscape

Laos, as a rapidly developing nation, reveals its diverse facets throughout this process. As distant observers, we must more carefully construct our imaginations and perceptions. Perhaps the secluded, pure land of "Laos" is gradually disappearing, becoming more and more like us, but so what? Only through acceptance can we truly understand, isn't that right?
