Talk:Special Zone of Xaisomboun

Untitled
Rescently in ja wikipedia I have seen an edit, which says that Xaisomboun is resolved into Two. You guys hear any news of this? --Anan 09:33, 29 November 2005 (UTC)


 * http://statoids.com/ula.html doesn't mention anything of a split of that province yet. Normally Gwillim Law would be amoung the firsts to list such information on the web. andy


 * From what I can guess from that Japanese it says it is split into ホム郡 (Hom) and ロンサーン郡 (Longsan). With some google and the various spellings of Longsan I found two publications which explain it - says "Since 2000, the districts of Longxan and Hom, previously in Xaysombou, have been incorporated into Vientiane Province". And one second hit  says they changed since 2001. Thus there is no new province, only the special zone has shrinked and I have to create new maps :-( andy 23:06, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
