More than 30 years after the wars in Vietnam and Cambodia, Cambodia is still plagued by unexploded landmines and ordinance. Nearly every day a mine or bomb is detonated killing and maiming the innocent who crossed its path. Siem Reap, Cambodia. 26/06/2006. Handicapped International helps Cambodians maimed by mines and unexploded ordinance as well as traffic accidents and disease adjust to a life without limbs. Cambodians are still wrestling with the legacy of the war in Vietnam and subsequent civil wars. At one time it was the most heavily mined country in the world and a vast swath of Cambodia, along the Thai-Cambodian border, is still mined. In 2004, more than 800 people were killed by mines and unexploded ordinance still found in the countryside. Even today mines kill and maim people, frequently farmers and their children working in the fields, almost every day. NGOs like Handicap International and the HALO Trust have spent millions trying to clear the country of landmines and rehabilitate the people who have been injured by them.
