• UXO Problems and Mine Awareness Programs in Laos
  By Tim Grant
  The Laos problem is quite different to the mined countries problems, but it shares many of the same responses for dealing with such situations. Most of the ordnance found there are UXOs and 'bombies', which are set off mainly by striking and sometimes just by touching. But the awareness program put in place to try to encourage safe behaviour is similar in many ways to mine awareness programs operating in other countries.
