Can my robot save my country?

Growing up in Cambodia, Richard Yim's childhood was overshadowed by a fear of landmines. It's a place where a war that ended decades ago is still killing people today - the land is laced with millions of mines. Like countless other children, Richard was cautioned from playing outside, and when he was eight years old, his aunt was killed in a landmine explosion. Now aged 25, Richard has invented a robot to try to clear Cambodia of its hidden bombs. He's been telling his story to Outlook's Neal Razzell.
