Lonewriter,
I know you're half kidding, and probably more than curious if the will
actually take a freebie.
But, I'm not sure if concepts such as, "Job Opening" really exist, at
least not with the "Lao media" department of the government.
Read the following first, and see if you stand any chance of being
part of the Lao media. Watch out though, there's a downside to
this...cause if you are accepted, you could put a lot of tenured
careers at the Lao National Radio out of work.

As for Laos donating a dollar to some orphanage? I'm sure they'll be
able to do it, AFTER what's left of millions of dollars in hand-outs
from international organizations and countries.
It never hurts to send them your request (not your resume though,
cause that stuff goes directly to their secret service department for
sake keeping).
Here's the info:
