It would look better if the beginning of the article didn't focus on Lao or Thai. Since this is an article about sampots, then the opening paragraph should tell us more about sampots such as it's uses, it's appearance and what it is made of but only use brief sentence It should be mentioned that Thai and Lao have similar dress-style, but it is going into detail too early in the article about the influence. Leave that for a later section in the article. Basically, the opening article should state the importants points first and discuss them in sections below. I'm not going to edit it though. --Dara 17:50, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

The reference I used refered to the similarities between Thai, Khmer and Lao textiles. I just added refernce to Lan Xang and Sukhothai as being Angkor influenced like how the kimono article refered to kimonos being influence by China's tang dynasty. You can remove it or add to another section like history but I don't mind it. CanCanDuo 00:02, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Textiles

There are:

• Sampot Charabap
• Sampot Hol
• Sampot Pha Muong
• Sampot L'beuk

plus others I don't know. But this article only explains two types of Sampot (textiles worn around the lower body). --Dara (talk) 03:32, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
