THE UNEXPLODED ORDNANCE (UXO) PROBLEM

Lao PDR has the unwanted distinction of being per capita the most heavily bombed nation in the world.  Between the years 1964 and 1973, the United States flew more than half a million bombing missions, delivering more than two million tons of explosive ordnance, in an attempt to block the flow of North Vietnamese arms and troops through Laotian territory. The ordnance dropped include more than 266 million submunitions (known as “bombies” in Lao) released from cluster bombs.

Significant land battles, including those during the war for independence during the French colonial era and between the Pathet Lao and the Royal Lao forces, also contributed vast quantities of unexploded heavy bombs, rockets, grenades, artillery munitions, mortars, anti-personnel landmines, and improvised explosive devices.

It is estimated that up to 30% of all ordnance did not explode. Such unexploded ordnance (UXO) continues to remain in the ground, maiming and killing people, and hindering socio-economic development and food security.

1. A person’s name is the one piece of personal information most often forgotten–and people are less likely to approach you if they don’t know your name.

2. Well it’s free advertising for you and your company – you can’t beat free advertising!!!

3. Name tags assist people to be friendly and more approachable. It gives them a comfort zone being able to call you by your first name.

4. Surfside Engraving Name badges are an inexpensive part of your brand or marketing.

Too often people give excuses on why they shouldn’t wear a name badge: “Name tags look silly.”    But, remember, everyone else is wearing one, too. “Name badges will ruin my clothes.” There are many different fittings e.g. magnetic name badges, lanyards and plastic clips. “But I already know everybody.” No, you don’t. Staff turnover causes big gaps where people become complacent in learning about their fellow workmates. “But everyone already knows me.” No, they don’t. Even the best networkers know there’s always someone new to meet – so don’t delay.

We have so many name badge solutions and many other products to help brand and advertise your business at very affordable prices.
