Laos seeks changes to expressway toll, currency exchange rates

These rates have been challenged by motorists, who say the toll charged for pick-ups is too high. Since the expressway opened in December, many people have posted complaints on social media, saying the amount charged for pick-up trucks is unreasonable because these vehicles are classified as truck type 1. The Investment Promotion Department recently instructed the company to review the toll charges and the dollar-kip exchange rate, as the toll charges are based on US dollars. The Law on Land Transport states that private vehicles include small transport vehicles with seats for not more than nine people including the driver, which covers pick-ups.
