Sinapan Samydorai, President of Think Centre announced that Think Centre's 2004 anti-landmine awareness campaign in the form of a photo exhibition depicting the lives of landmine victims. The initiative is in collaboration with the M&C Saatchi Singapore, who designed the black-and-white photo-editorials that were publicly exhibited for the first time.

Singapore has not joined the Mine Ban Treaty and is one of only a dozen landmine producers which has not renounced production. Joint efforts such as these, by NGOs and in this case a large advertising agency, will certainly help raise awareness regarding the plight of landmine survivors in neighboring countries like Cambodia as well as the need for Singapore to join the international community in banning this weapon.
