His Royal Highness Prince Joachim just finished a week long visit to Laos on November 19. The Prince is protector for Care Denmark and the focus of the visit was on getting more knowledge about how clima change affects the livelihood of poor farmers in the countryside. The Prince spent more than 24 hours on the road and many hours on rivers to visit remote villages where Care is engaged in supporting poor farmers.

He also had the opportunity to visit Mascot international Laos, Denmark’s biggest manufacturer of work wear and safety shoes, who has been operational in Laos since early 2014.
