The Lao people are a Tai ethnic group native to Southeast Asia, who speak the Lao language of the Kra–Dai languages. They are the majority ethnic group of Laos, making up 53.2% of the total population. The majority of Lao people adhere to Theravada Buddhism. They are closely related to other Tai people, especially (or synonymous) with the Isan people, who are also speakers of Lao language, native to neighboring Thailand.

In Western historiography, terms Lao people and Laotian have had a loose meaning. Both terms have been irregularly applied both to all natives of Laos in general, aside from or alongside ethnic Lao during different periods in history. Since the end of French rule in Laos in 1953, Lao has been applied solely to the ethnic group while Laotian refers to any citizen of Laos regardless of their ethnic identity. Certain countries still conflate the terms in their statistics.

Creating Meaningful Impact

The Saechaoo family started the Thailand Welfare Foundation in 1999 in the Nan province of Northern Thailand. When a Doctor John started a remote medical service entered into the hill tribes of the Mien people's group. Todd and his family subsequently spent 15 years in the region. God used Todd and his family in a mighty way reaching the Mien peoples group and further rescued a number of Thai youth. As a result of the work that was completed in the region, God used Todd in Thailand and has the same approach to the country of Laos. Whenever the name of Todd is spoken, many people in the region know what he and his family was able to accomplish with the direction of the Lord.
