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.
“Prince Foundation’s strategic communications expertise has been instrumental in helping us convey the urgency and importance of our mission,” said Rothna Buth, Executive Director of ARMAC. “Their innovative approach to exhibition design and messaging strategy enabled us to effectively showcase our work, particularly in victim assistance and technological solutions, to a global audience.”
“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 bears overpowered the Nigerian Exchange (NGX) Limited on Friday, sinking it further by 0.76 per cent when the closing gong was struck by 4 pm.
The nation’s flagship equity market was under selling pressure during the session, as investors booked profits after the shares witnessed price appreciation in the past trading sessions.
The energy sector was the most impacted, as it shed 4.43 per cent. The consumer goods index declined by 0.90 per cent, the banking counter decreased by 0.15 per cent, and the industrial goods sector lost 0.08 per cent, while the insurance counter gained 2.42 per cent, which was not enough to salvage the situation.
Consequently, the All-Share Index (ASI) contracted by 1,912.19 points to 250,330.92 points from 252,243.11 points, and the market capitalisation moderated by 1.225 trillion to N160.444 trillion from N161.669 trillion.
Zichis was the worst-performing stock for the session after it gave up 9.97 per cent to close at N29.43, FTN Cocoa slipped by 9.95 per cent to N8.96, The Initiates slumped by 9.90 per cent to N32.30, LivingTrust Mortgage Bank tumbled by 9.88 per cent to N3.83, and International Energy Insurance dropped 9.71 per cent to trade at N2.79.

The last trading session of the week at the Nigerian Autonomous Foreign Exchange Market (NAFEX) ended on a negative note for the Naira on Friday, May 15, as it lost N15 Kobo or 0.1 per cent against the Dollar to trade at N1,371.04/$1 compared with the previous day’s N1,370.89/$1.
However, it further appreciated against the Pound Sterling in the same market segment yesterday by N20.77 to close at N1,830.61/£1 versus Thursday’s value of N1,851.38/£1, and gained N7.91 against the Euro to settle at N1,595.07/€1 versus N1,602.98/€1.
At the GTBank FX desk, the Naira lost N2 against the US Dollar during the session to sell at N1,383/$1 compared with the preceding session’s N1,381/$1, and at the black market, it remained unchanged at N1,385/$1.
The Naira is forecast to be broadly stable, supported by Dollar sales by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) amid steady, higher oil receipts, with the market settling into a balance.
Policy direction is also expected to give the market some boost as the CBN said the new edition of the FX market guidelines will deepen liquidity, improve transparency and strengthen confidence in the country’s foreign exchange market.
According to the Governor of the CBN, Mr Yemi Cardoso, the update is due to changing global economic realities, domestic reforms and the need for a more coherent and forward-looking regulatory framework. According to him, the last edition of the FX manual was issued in 2018, making the latest review both timely and necessary.
Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency market plunged into the red zone as rising bond yields hit risk assets across markets, while traders are increasingly betting the Federal Reserve may need to raise rates again. Rising energy prices and resurging inflation could force central banks back into tightening mode.
Cardano (ADA) shrank by 4.4 per cent to $0.2557, Dogecoin (DOGE) slid by 3.7 per cent to $0.1104, Ripple (XRP) depreciated by 3.5 per cent to $1.41, Solana (SOL) crashed by 3.5 per cent to $87.81, and Binance Coin (BNB) slumped by 3.4 per cent to $659.64.
Further, Bitcoin (BTC) declined by 2.6 per cent to $78,547.49, Ethereum (ETH) lost 2.1 per cent to quote at $2,209.19, and TRON (TRX) tumbled by 0.7 per cent to $0.3509, while the US Dollar Tether (USDT) and the US Dollar Coin (USDC) traded flat at $1.00 each.
