WPB-M -- here is hoping that the warning would have been tougher had Lao Aviation been flying the Nomad.
I do not have the stats on accidents with that craft, but the % of incidents must have been quite high, for the # of aircraft sold. Remember when the new Chief Minister and half of his Cabinet was lost in Sabah, in a Nomad crash. Changed the course of history there.
There is sometimes a problem with aviation firsts, especially when national pride gets mixed in. Remember the Comet?
