JAKARTA: The Canadian Embassy is cosponsoring a photo exhibition
titled Warisan Perang Untuk Rakyat (Legacy of War) as part of its
support for the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, Canadian
Ambassador to Indonesia Randolph Mank said.

The other sponsors of the event are the United Nations
Children's Fund and the Jesuit Refugee Services.

The three-day exhibition, which opened on Thursday, is being

antipersonnel landmines and their continued use around the
world," Ambassador Mank said in a press release sent to The
Jakarta Post. -- JP
