Cambodia Landmine MuseumThese teenagers at the Cambodia Landmine Museum each lost a leg to land mines. At one time, the small country of Cambodia was one of the most heavily mined places in the world, and a large area along its border with Thailand is still mined.
The museum, in the village of Siem Reap, was established by a former Khmer Rouge soldier named Aki Ra to educate locals and tourists about the dangers of unexploded mines. He also runs a demining operation, and he and his wife care for a number of children maimed by mines.
