Administration:
The constitution of 1991 allows
for a 99-member legislature, the Sapha Heng Xat (National Assembly),
members of which are elected for 5-year terms and must (with the
odd exception) belong to the ruling Lao People's Revolutionary Party.
The assembly elects an executive
president, also for a 5-year term. The president appoints a Prime
Minister and Council of Ministers.
