The tiny country of Laos was never officially at war with the United States, but it has suffered terribly nonetheless. It is among the most bombed countries in the world after the US dropped tonnes of bombs during its secret war in the 1960s and 70s. Josh Rsuhing finds out how these bombs are still exploding and joins efforts to clear the huge amounts of unexploded ordnance.

  • Where is the Hmong worker....! Give Hmong the money. They will do it without complaining and blame other people for their reason. If ya's laos cant do it and gonna complain then hire the Hmong people to do it. But ya's Laos PDR make sure don't murder them. Every time I talk about ya's PDR it get on my nerv because ya's have no knowledge but kill.

  • Write to your state senators and make them aware of the UXOs in Laos. The more people knows about this tragedy, the more chance that Laos will receive more help to clear the UXOs.
