Notes - "Ly Xia Foung was born in 1888 in the village
of Ha Klua Lia, Nong Het, Laos. He was a
very well respected person in the Hmong
community and was one of the first Hmong
to gain a prominent position in Lao society.
"Ly Xia Foung was a farmer, craftsman and a
traveling tradesman. He helped the Hmong
minority liaison with the Lao government in
relation to the issues of health, well-being,
and education. Ly Xia Foung strongly
encouraged Hmong children to attend
school so they could better their lives. Ly Xia
Foung was very skilled in farming,
blacksmithing, carpentry, and basket
weaving. He was also creatively talented in
singing, playing the flute, and qeej
instrument playing. He was multilingual and
spoke Chinese, Laotian, and a bit of
Vietnamese, in addition to Hmong. Ly Xia
Foung died of tetanus in 1939, in the village
of Phak Khe where he had been the District
Administrator of Keng Khuai."
