Vietnam and the US have been working together for a number of decades already to clear away unexploded ordnance (UXO) left over from the war, which has proven to be fruitful, especially in central Quang Tri province - the area in Vietnam most contaminated by UXO.
The People’s Committee of central Quang Tri province announced on March 15 that it has approved a project on technical consultation, training and capacity building for the clearance of unexploded ordnance (UXO) left over from the war.
The People’s Committee of the central province of Quang Binh has received an aid package from the US Golden West Humanitarian Foundation to conduct a project to clear unexploded ordnances (UXO).
An MoU on cooperation in solving wartime landmine and unexploded ordnance (UXO) impacts was signed between the Vietnam National Mine Action Centre and the US’s Golden West Humanitarian Foundation.
