Japan has agreed to provide $227,736 under the “Grant Assistance for Grassroots Human Security Projects” – or the “Kusanone” grant – to improve firefighting in the Kingdom. The fund will cover the purchase of a secondhand chemical-equipped fire engine, as well as the training and maintenance of firefighting equipment. The “Kusanone” project, started in Cambodia in 1991, is designed to support the reconstruction and development at the grassroots level. Photos supplied
