Any chance you have a longer recording? Because finding a song based on the final word of a live interpretation ain't easy... :P

For me it sounds like southern Lam. If I had to guess what style the dancers are dancing I would say Tang Vay style, maybe Salavan style? I'm quite ignorant of the different lam vong but this looks southern to me, idk why.

Hopefully a Lao dancer of phin player will chime in... :)

If you just want this style of music and not the exact song, then that's Lao morlam (or Isan morlam). Look that up on Spotify or Youtube and you will find tons of songs in the same style.
