•  Support Nice non-staged photo of rural life and death. If you know what they are doing holding that rope, it would be nice if you added that to the description. I'm sure there are other like me who have no clue about it but are curious. --cart-Talk 20:08, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

• Holding a rope linked to the coffin is a ritual called chungsob (ຈູງສົບ in lao) in relation with the soul of the deceased. This rope will not be incinerated and may be kept by the monks. Traditionally, cotton strings play an important role in ceremonies in Laos, like in the baci, and can be used in various ways at diverse occasions. In front of the coffin, there is a Buddhist money trees, religious item with authentic banknotes, an offering to the monks -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:17, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
