The Japanese government has made a donation to an NGO in order to help with the destruction of ammunition and explosives which are still being stored in the Kingdom.

The Jmas (Japan mine action service) organisation officially received 884,955 dollars from the Japanese Ambassador to Cambodia, Katsuhiro Shinohara, during a ceremony assisted by Yamamoto Tadafumi, Jmas representative.

This donation is intended to support a program in the provinces of Kampong Speu, Kandal, Svay Rieng and Kampong Cham, where many people fell victim to non-defused ordnance.

Since 2002, Japan contributed 7.7 million dollars to the funding of 47 programs, set up by Japanese NGO’s. They involve the sectors of education, health and destruction of ammunition.
