The Landmine Survivors Network estimates that there are 80 million landmines buried worldwide - every one with the potential to kill or maim.

Long after the conflict in Cambodia ended, the area around the Thai-Cambodia border remains littered with mines.

  • Yeah, why is Thailand clearing land mine. Land mines were planted by the Khmer Rouge and Vietnamese during the Khmer Rouge period and during the Vietnamese invasion. Thailand would never allow land mines to be planted in its land. Thailand is encroaching on Cambodian land.

  • You thai people are nothing but thief bastards.

  • Our country are close to each other, we should create peace not war, and what if war happen? we will all loose benefits. Make peace not war.

  • Every countries want to do for their benifits man.

    What I know if khmer put Preah Vihear into World Heritage lists, Hun Sen might have more money to put into his pocket.

  • The point of VDO is not about whose land or who invades.

    It is that about clearing landmines for pp to live in!!!

    I really do not understand what most commentors thinking.

  • people are responsible for their governments, thats what revolts are for.

  • Why are Thailand clearing land. They never had war. It is Cambodian's land that Thailand has encroached.
