"柬埔寨國公省的生態觀光"

鄰近泰國邊界的柬埔寨國公省正在努力成為該區域的生態觀光中心。對於此區域而言，這是一個又新又引人注目的發展，因為直到最近此區域才跟外界開始有了些許的接觸。多年來，國公省的基礎建設非常破舊，但是現在已經改觀了，因為該區域正吸引著許多觀光客前來此地了解這裡的獨特風情。

國公省的叢林包括一大片的原始熱帶雨林以及各式各樣的動物生態，其中包括瀕臨絕種的亞洲象和老虎。此區域也包括12座尚未開發的原始群島。也許該區域最吸引人的部分就是這裡的民眾，數以千計的觀光客湧入此地親自目睹柬埔寨美麗的部落生活。

基礎建設的改善不是國公省在過去幾年經歷的唯一改變。沒多久前，這個區域充斥著盜獵者和伐木工，但是一切在2007年開始改變，因為一個名叫野生動物聯盟的環保團體開始與當地人合作。該計畫成功地將盜獵者變成導遊，村民變成民宿主人，而這也成為民眾保護寶貴生態資源的動機。

(Travel) Ecotourism in Cambodias Koh Kong Province

Situated near to the border with Thailand, the Cambodian province of Koh Kong is establishing itself as a regional center for ecotourism. It is a new and remarkable development in an area that until very recently had scant contact with the outside world. For years, Koh Kong suffered with poor infrastructure, but with that now changing, the area is attracting visitors keen to take in its unique charms.

The jungles of Koh Kong contain huge sections of virgin rainforest and a diverse array of animal life, which includes the endangered Asian elephant and tiger. The region also contains an archipelago of 12 pristine islands. Perhaps the areas biggest attraction, though, remains its people, and thousands of tourists are flocking there to see for themselves the beauty of Cambodian village life.

Improvements in infrastructure arent the only alterations Koh Kong has undergone over the last few years. Until recently, the area was rife with poachers and loggers, but all that began to change in 2007 when a conservation group called Wildlife Alliance began working with the locals. The project successfully converted poachers into tour guides and villagers into guest house owners so that people have an incentive to preserve their precious ecosystem.
