Frequently asked questions.
A starting point for authors, reviewers, and institutions. Policies and fees will provide the definitive details.
Can I write in Lao?
Yes. We support manuscripts in Lao, English, or bilingual formats. English title, abstract, and keywords may be required for specific discovery goals.
Do you guarantee acceptance or indexing?
No. Editorial decisions and indexing decisions are independent. We prepare work and journals to meet stated criteria, but never guarantee outcomes.
How does peer review work?
Our planned journal workflow uses double-blind peer review with at least two independent reviewers, subject to the journal policy.
What does author support include?
Research design guidance, structure, literature review support, academic English, abstracts, bilingual preparation, and submission support.
What are the fees?
[APC AND SERVICE FEES TO BE CONFIRMED]. Any fees and waivers will be published clearly.
Do you support journals outside Lao Nexus?
Yes. DOI, editorial, peer-review, journal-development, indexing-readiness, and ISSN assistance can be scoped for external journals.
