This is the place I went to - https://www.cambodialandminemuseum.org/

I went to an education centre about this when I was in Cambodia a few years ago. The answer to your question is "no". The guide said the number of mines and other unexploded items are in the millions. A couple of links: https://www.halotrust.org/where-we-work/asia/cambodia/ https://the-monitor.org/country-profile/cambodia/impact A search on Google "cambodia land mines" gets a lot more info. Hope this helps to answer your question.

I reckon Putin is eyeing being the next recipient of the FIFA Peace prize...

I thought it's called "tenderising"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meat_tenderizer Slightly more seriously, this is disgusting. That dog seems to have done absolutely nothing to deserve this.

I hope this initiative is a success! Reminds me of the success of red kite conservancy in the UK in recent years. https://www.hawk-conservancy.org/conservation-research/uk/redkiteecology/

When I was a child and I cried for no reason, my parents would say "I'll give you something to cry about". Just wondering whether this guy should be given a reason to need to use that priority lane... Just joking folks...

I understand what you are saying, I don't like restaurant/post office queues either. That said, I've been to big music festivals (100k plus people) and where I live can be pretty crowded. But I don't seem to mind that too much.

I'm more into rock and metal. Anything like that at this festival?

That's a very cutting remark...

All surgery involving anaesthesia has risks. I guess the cosmetic clinic will have had the guy sign some kind of waiver? Most important of course, I hope he fully recovers.

Classic UK political compromise. But, there is this provision (my quoted text above). If the UK keeps assessing the evidence and feedback from other countries, and then acts decisively based on that evidence and feedback, then this might be the best solution at this time.

And the munitions manufacturer friends?

So much could be said about this, but to me this seems pretty fast compared to western standards and the payments are funded by some of those responsible. Not a good news story of course, but this seems one tiny forward step.

During my first visit to Hua Hin I got chatting with a very nice bar girl. I'd seen her dropped off by her boyfriend/husband so I chose to avoid any shenanigans. I regret that now, she was really very nice.

For my first time in Pattaya I joined TF. I had a lot of fun. Every woman I chatted with then agreed to meet up with was honest enough to say they were it in for the money. To be fair, I was expecting to chat with freelancers so I was not surprised.
