Batu Ampar Mangrove Ecotourism Encouraged to Become an Economic Resource for Kubu Raya Residents

To support this development, Indah emphasized the need for inventory and mapping of areas, preparation of joint governance, and strengthening community institutions.

This process requires the involvement of the government, residents, the business world, state-owned companies, academics and non-governmental organizations so that area management can run sustainably.

Kelulut Honey is an Example of a Conservation-Based Business

After the socialization, Pontianak City BPEGM officials together with the Head of Kubu Raya Disporapar, the Batu Ampar DMPM Working Team, and Kandelia Alam company representatives inspected kelulut honey cultivation in the village.

Kelulut honey cultivation was introduced as an example of community economic activities that are in harmony with environmental conservation. This effort is part of efforts to utilize natural potential productively while maintaining the ecological function of the area.

Through the Independent Mangrove Care Village Program, the protection of coastal ecosystems is expected to go hand in hand with the development of tourism and community businesses. Economic benefits for residents are an important part of supporting sustainable mangrove management.

The socialization with the theme "Protecting Mangroves, Securing Future Generations" was opened by the Head of Pontianak City BPEGM Administration Subdivision Doni Kristianto, representing the head of the hall.

This activity also involved the village government, village officials, RT/RW heads, the Batu Ampar DMPM Working Team, representatives of Kandelia Alam, and the local community.
