Title
EU ASAC - The EU's Assistance on Curbing Small Arms and Light Weapons in the Kingdom of Cambodia
Description
In 1999, at the request of the Royal Government of Cambodia, the Council of Ministers of the European Union decided to assist Cambodia in curbing the devastating effects of widespread availability of small arms and light weapons throughout the country. To tackle the problems, EU ASAC initiated a comprehensive plan with different components that together are having a noticeable impact on the Cambodian weapons security situation.
Collection and destruction of weapons left over from the civil war and which were hidden in weapons caches in the mountains and the forests.
The success of the programme has been largely due to the commitment of the Royal Government of Cambodia to create a weapons-free society. This has led to good co-operation between EU ASAC and the Royal Government.
