PHNOM PENH (Xinhua) -- Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Sen appealed to students on Thursday to donate blood for saving human life, saying that the current blood donation is not enough.
Speaking to graduate students here, Hun Sen said only three out of 1,000 people have donated blood; and therefore, a new movement or a campaign among students shall be made available in donating blood.
"Donating blood is very important to save the life," he said.
Hun Sen said, at present, the number of casualties caused by traffic accidents is too high, and that he said, many drivers are neglectful to the traffic rule or driving while they are drunk.
He complained that, quite often, the country's Independence Monument located just near his residence in central Phnom Penh has been hit and damaged by drunken drivers.
The premier said there are many students in the country and if half of them donate blood then it's significant to save lives.
According to figure released by Ministry of Public Work and Transport, it showed that a total of 941 people were killed and 4, 331 others injured in road accidents in the first half of this year.
The figure showed that the death toll increased by 1 percent from 931 deaths in the first six months of last year, while the number of the injured declined 20 percent from 5,418 injuries in the same period of last year.
According to Ministry of Health, every year about 30,000 blood stocks are necessarily needed to save human life in any hospital around Cambodia.
Blood donation is a precious humanitarian activity for saving the life, and it is necessary that unless two or three among 100 volunteers, it cannot sufficiently response to the requirement.
The report made available by National Blood Donor Center showed that even though the number of blood donation is still limited, it has been increased over the past two years, saying the center received 40,245 blood bags in 2010, while only 35,895 blood bags received in 2009.

It's a good idea to donate blood, but make sure it is safe, with no HIV contamination etc... and free of abuse.
Can it be guaranteed that it is 100% safe? Even our hospitals can't fuction like a hospital until this day.
Hun Xen family don't donate blood, but they robs & shed poor khmer's blood , that what they can do best.

What type of careers do you people work in? Cause these response you post are so lame and uneducated. Cambodia Exchange will expect to raise capital from foreign or domestic investors with proper respect to legal environment to appropriate the values and trusts. In which case the level of environment in CAMBODIA's Government is not suit to harvest such capitalism.
Thus, CAMBODIA IS JUST ANOTHER COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT OPERATING UNDER THE SKIN OF DEMOCRATIC STATUES. PLEASE TELL HUN SEN HE OWE ME MONEY. WHOLE FAMILY IN FACT. PHAY SHITPAN, TOO. So shut up about being arrogant.
TRUE CAPITALISM COME FROM PROPER GOVERNMENT THAT VALUES AND GAIN TRUST FROM THEIR RESPECTED CITIZEN WITH VIRTUES. CAMBODIA = CORRUPTION, FRAUD, INCONSISTENT VALUATION INCOME WISE. TOO MUCH COPYRIGHT CONCERNS.
CAMBODIAN GOVERNMENT HELP THEIR CORRUPTED CAPITAL SYSTEM TO PRODUCE LOSSES FOR AMERICAN COMPANIES BY NOT RESPECTING AMERICAN COMPANIES COPYRIGHTS.
I SEE T-SHIRTS being produce without copyright from AMERICAN COMPANIES.
DVDs production without proper copyrights.
WALT DISNEY logos without their copyright.
SO MUCH DISRESPECT from CAMBODIAN GOVERNMENT yet they whine about raising capital.
HOW MUCH FAKE STOCKS will be issues from, HUN MANET's DESK?
BY THE WAY DID YOU KNOW????
PRAHA MAE BAIT SAIT>>>>> :)
