Prince Foundation Amplifies Mine Action Message at Landmark Siem Reap Summit
As part of its contribution to the Fifth Review Conference, Prince Foundation designed ARMAC’s exhibition booth, which was widely praised as the “best in show” by attending delegates. The campaign also resulted in a notable boost to ARMAC’s social media presence and increased engagement across its platforms.
The immersive display effectively conveyed ARMAC’s mission through visually striking elements, compelling storytelling, and innovative presentations of key initiatives, including the groundbreaking SAFE (Saving All From EO) chatbot.
Prince Foundation also worked closely with ARMAC leadership to craft strategic messaging that spotlighted the organization’s victim assistance programs, particularly the ASEAN Regional Victim Assistance Network (VAN), which provides comprehensive care for survivors of explosive ordnance and their families.
“Our role was to ensure ARMAC’s vital work received the attention it deserves,” said Gabriel Tan, Chief Communications Officer of Prince Holding Group and Head of Prince Foundation. “Through strategic communications and innovative exhibition design, we have helped amplify ARMAC’s message of hope and action to a global audience.”
Creating Impact Through Strategic Communications
The Foundation’s communications strategy highlighted ARMAC’s technological innovations, including the SAFE chatbot, an artificial intelligence-powered platform that delivers critical safety information to at-risk communities through accessible messaging systems.

“By crafting compelling narratives around ARMAC’s initiatives, we’re fostering broader understanding and support for mine action efforts,” Tan added. “Our goal was to make complex technical information accessible and engaging for all attendees through our exhibition design and communications strategy.”

The Naira marginally depreciated against the United States Dollar in the Nigerian Autonomous Foreign Exchange Market (NAFEM) on Thursday, December 4 amid renewed forex pressure associated with December.
At the official market yesterday, the Nigerian currency lost 0.01 per cent or 18 Kobo against the Dollar to close at N1,447.83/$1 compared with the previous day’s N1,447.65/$1.
It was not a different scenario with the local currency in the same market segment against the Pound Sterling as it further shed N15.43 to sell for N1,930.97/£1 versus Wednesday’s closing price of N1,925.08/£1 and declined against the Euro by 20 Kobo to finish at N1,688.74/€1 compared with the preceding session’s N1,688.54/€1.
Similarly, the Nigerian Naira lost N5 against the greenback in the black market to quote at N1,465/$1 compared with the previous day’s value of N1,460/$1 but closed flat against the Dollar at the GTBank FX counter at N1,453/$1.
Fluctuations in trading range is expected to continue during the festive season as traders expect the Nigerian currency to be stable, supported by intervention s by to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)in the face of steady dollar demand.
Support is also expected in coming weeks as seasonal activities, particularly the stylised “Detty December” festivities, will see inflows that will give the Naira a boost after it depreciated mildly last month, according to a new report.
“As the festive Detty December season intensifies, inbound travel, tourism spending, and diaspora inflows are expected to provide moderate support for FX liquidity,” analysts at the research unit of FMDA said in its latest monthly report for November.
Traders cited by Reuters expect that the Naira will trade within a band of N1,443-N1,450 next week, buoyed by improved FX interventions by the apex bank.
Meanwhile, the crypto market was down as the US Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge, core PCE, likely rose in September—moving in the wrong direction. However, volatility indices show no signs of major turbulence.
If the actual figure matches estimates, it would mark 55 straight months of inflation above the US central bank’s 2 per cent target. The sticky inflation would strengthen the hawkish policymakers, who are in favour of slower rate cuts.
Ripple (XRP) depreciated by 4.5 per cent to $2.08, Solana (SOL) went down by 3.8 per cent to $138.11, Litecoin (LTC) shrank by 3.1 per cent to $83.23, Dogecoin (DOGE) slid by 2.5 per cent to $0.1463, Cardano (ADA) declined by 2.1 per cent to $0.4368, Bitcoin (BTC) fell by 0.9 per cent to $91,975.45, Binance Coin (BNB) crumbled by 0.9 per cent to $899.41, and Ethereum (ETH) dropped by 0.7 per cent to $3,156.44, while the US Dollar Tether (USDT) and the US Dollar Coin (USDC) closed flat at $1.00 apiece.
