We were thrilled to have our first study tour to see the work, last Sunday. Thai-speaking and gibbon call expert, Dr Robert Mather (pictured left with Bang Don) from the IUCN and WWF staff have been guiding a group of Cambodian villagers around various interesting parts of southern Thailand for a week.
Bang Don (left above) presented the work of his crab group and answered a variety of questions, organisational and technical, posed by the visitors, some of whom did the same thing back home.
For their part, despite it being the last day of what must have been a gruelling tour, they took notes assiduously, and asked very pertinent questions.
Having thanked Bang Don, and the other members of the crab group who supported him, the group moved onto the mangrove site. K' Donnapat and I did our best to explain our objectives, and why a former pond now looked like a golf driving range.
We very much hope that their visit was useful to them. They were delightful people and took an interest in everything.
Please come back to see us again, soon, and feel free to get in contact if we can help further.
