I have known Akira personally. He is enthusiastic and dedicating to what he has believed that one day Cambodian people will be free of fear of landmines. He has well utilized his demining experiences to instruct people to prevent further devastation. His initiative to open Landmine Museum was controversial with the authority, but his triumph has been finally successful. This tiny museum located along road to Bonteary Srey, a very delicate temple of pre-Angkorean style. This museum comprises of exhibition of numerous mines and war supplies. More than this, there is a building residing to hundred of Khmer orphans who particularly affected by the mines. The revenue generating from this museum is used for humanitarian purposes.
What is saddened me most is his beloved wife, Bou Seng Hourt, who has helped him settle this museum since the beginning died because of stroke last year. Akira becomes a widow with 3 biological kids and hundred fostering kids.
For the sake of Cambodia; for the sake of Siem Reap, a province of thousand ancient temples and ancient capital city of Cambodia; and especially for the good role model of Cambodian citizen, please help vote Akira, Demining Hero of Cambodia through CNN.
VOTE FOR OUR DEMINING HERO!
With Metta,

ummm.......there no thought he is doing his best to get rid of mines in cambodia ,but if we look at his past at one point how many people lost thier legs or lost thier life from the mines he has laid how many kid lost thier father or family member and what type of suffering they had to go throught? does he really deserve to be a hero after all???

Yes, he does!
Aki Ra IS a hero.
Anyone can make mistakes in the past, especially when they are a child and told what to do by adults.
The real heroes are those who wake up, realize their mistakes, then do all they can to make up for that past.
Also, in Aki Ra's case, because he served in the various different armies fighting in Cambodia, he learned the different tricks they use to lay landmines. So, his past experience makes him the most qualified and expert person to know how to safely remove those mines now.
All power to Aki Ra....HERO!
Thank you...
I love my brother. Great job sir!
we will not forget you!
Thank you!...May God bless u and your family!
