MONDULKIRI LOCAL PROJECT - THE WHY

​- working for the community -
​One of our uniqueness is, that we are on-site and work together with local tour guides.
Wwe are continuously working with the Punong people, understanding their needs and finding ways to support them become more resilient, regarding globalization and foreign companies looking to exploit their community and lands.

- understanding the real needs of the community - 
​The money that we gather from our tours is directly distributed to the needs of the community, by helping
the local people generate their own income and business,
for example the homestay at our Putang Village, their
hand-crafted shop and the trekking in the jungle with
the local guide helps each guide support his family.
We want to develop sustainable jobs and preserve the elephants and their habitat.

​- not to westernize the community - 
It is important to us not to try to westernize the Punong community but to help keep the traditions and culture alive, and make them proud to share these traditions, knowledge and way of living with tourists.
