The Cambodian killing fields, once Khmer Rouge genocidal abattoirs, are still mine-strewn disasters waiting to explode. Aki Ra is determined not to let that happen.

In Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge, Aki Ra was one of thousands of young children stolen from their families and turned into killing machines. Living with the horrors of his past and armed only with a stick and a kitchen knife, he has cleared over 50,000 land mines, while teaching others his craft. A quiet hero, working alone in obscurity, he has undoubtedly saved as many lives as he was forced to take.
