On 2 October 2025, the Cambodian Mine Action Centre (CMAC) said it planned to clear over 41 square kilometres of mine-contaminated land in provinces bordering Thailand, serving Cambodian residents. It stressed that the sites were within provincial villages, communes and districts, not adjoining or near the Cambodia–Thailand boundary.
CMAC said the government had planned this clearance for many years and that it had no connection to Thai requests or disputed border areas.
The centre said the project supported Prime Minister Hun Manet’s goals of providing safe land and hope, rebuilding communities and dignity, and creating a better future for Cambodians.
