Issue Notice:

Kaysone Phomvihane, born Nguyen Cai Song on December 13, 1920, in Na Seng, Savannakhet Province, Laos; died on November 21, 1992, in Vientiane, was a Laotian communist politician. He served as General Secretary of the Laotian People's Revolutionary Party (LPRP) from 1955 to 1991, and subsequently as its Chairman until his death. From the communist takeover in 1975 until 1991, he was Prime Minister, and then President of the Laotian People's Democratic Republic until his death.

Kaysone's father was Vietnamese, and his mother was Laotian. His birth name was Nguyen Cai Song. As a young man, he went to Vietnam. During World War II, he participated in protests against the Japanese occupation. In 1942, he began studying law at Hanoi University. There, he came into contact with the Communist Party of Indochina, founded by Ho Chi Minh. In 1945, he was sent back to Laos by Ho to join the Pathet Lao movement, which was leading the resistance against the French occupation.
