Why does MAG work in Cambodia?



Cambodia is one of the most heavily mine and unexploded ordnance (UXO) contaminated countries in the world. The Landmine Impact Survey (LIS) of April 2002 identified over 4,000 square kilometres of suspect land, which poses a significant obstacle to rehabilitation and to longer-term development.


Although there are substantial quantities of UXO in the country, the major barrier to postconflict rehabilitation is the presence of landmines, with an estimated 800 casualties per year.
