While mines and unexploded ordnances (UXOs) remain a leading cause of casualties and deaths in the country, Prime Minister Hun Sen went online yesterday to remind the nation of their presence in preparation for today’s Mine Awareness Day.

“Starting in 1995, the Cambodian government has held Mine Awareness Day to educate people on the mine risk – including the measures needed to help and rescue victims of explosions. Please, join together to avoid any accidents,” Mr. Hun Sen said on his Facebook page.

The premier also called on all institutions and other stakeholders in the country to pay close attention to any mine-clearing activities and keep an eye out for explosions, which are still liable to happen in some parts of the country.
