Issue Notice:
- The Lao People's Revolutionary Party (abbreviated LRVP) is a Marxist-Leninist political party in Laos. It was founded in 1955 and emerged from the Indochinese Communist Party (CCP), which Ho Chi Minh had founded in 1930. In February 1930, Ho Chi Minh, along with other communists, founded the CCP in Hong Kong. Initially, the party consisted mainly of Vietnamese members. In 1934, six cells of the Indochinese Communist Party merged to form a Laotian section. After 1945, Ho Chi Minh brought young revolutionary intellectuals from the two other Indochinese countries under French rule, Cambodia and Laos, into the party, including Kaysone Phomvihane and Nouhak Phoumsavanh from Laos.In the 1950s, three regional parties emerged from the Indochinese Communist Party, which continued the aims of the CCP in their respective countries.
- In Laos, this was the Lao People's Party (LPP), which was founded on March 22, 1955. It saw itself as a revolutionary party. Its first party congress was attended by 25 delegates representing approximately 400 members. However, since all information was kept secret by Vietnam, its main partner (until 1991, even the names of party cadres were not officially released), verification is extremely difficult. It is known, however, that the LVP included cadres from the Lao Issara Movement, as well as partisan units and left-wing intellectuals who had received their education in Hanoi, Moscow, and Beijing. Immediately after its founding, the party found itself in a dangerous situation. Between 1957 and 1958, many members were arrested, imprisoned, or killed.
