According to the memories of workers who participated in the construction of the China-Laos Railway, this project was the most dangerous project they had ever experienced: a large amount of UXO from US carpet bombing during the Vietnam War, which Laos was embroiled in.😱 Image
Within nine years, 270 million bombs in total weighing two million tonnes were dropped on Laos, equalling eight bombs per minute on average. The total number of bombs is more than that dropped during World War II. Image
