What's wrong with Myanmar and Laos?
It is talked about in the WH post I linked:
Myanmar (as Burma)
(i) According to the Overstay Report, Burma had a B‑1/B-2 visa overstay rate of 27.07 percent and an F, M, and J visa overstay rate of 42.17 percent. Additionally, Burma has historically not cooperated with the United States to accept back their removable nationals. (ii) The entry into the United States of nationals of Burma as immigrants and nonimmigrants is hereby fully suspended.
Laos
(i) According to the Overstay Report, Laos had a B‑1/B-2 visa overstay rate of 34.77 percent and an F, M, and J visa overstay rate of 6.49 percent. Laos has historically failed to accept back its removable nationals. (ii) The entry into the United States of nationals of Laos as immigrants, and as nonimmigrants on B-1, B‑2, B-1/B-2, F, M, and J visas, is hereby suspended. (iii) Consular officers shall reduce the validity for any other nonimmigrant visa issued to nationals of Laos to the extent permitted by law.

You think it's a permaban until someone dares reversing it?

Not permanent
Immigrants from both countries have high rates of welfare handouts, I think it's at least 40 percent
