VIENTIANE， March 17 (Xinhua) -- Approximately 6，000 children under five years old in Laos reportedly die every year resulting from a lack of proper nutrition， according to the latest survey.
As many as 36.5 percent of children in Laos are facing stunting that will pose negative impacts for long term national development， the survey said.
