What are SMALL ARMS and LIGHT WEAPONS (SALW)? JSAC's WDP Project
"Small Arms", weapons designed for individual use, and "Light Weapons", those designed for use by a crew, are collectively called SALW.
SALW includes pistols, rifles, and potable launchers of anti-tank missiles. Landmines and explosives are also types of SALW in a broad definition.
The annual number of SALW victims are said to be more than 500,000, and thus, SALW is sometimes called "de facto Weapons of Mass Destruction." 		WDP Project is a new weapons collection methodology established by JSAC.
WDP Project stands for Weapons Reduction and Development for Peace Project.
Please see Weapons Reduction and Development for Peace (WDP) : a new approach for voluntary weapons surrendering.
About the Arms LawF
The New Arms Law came into effect in Cambodia.
It differs from the previous regulations which did not include enforcement. Strict penalties are now included for the illegal possession and usage of small arms.

Please see The New Arms Law for details and full text.		 JSAC in its 2nd PhaseF
