Visiting with the indigenous village of Pos Lanai, through Malaysia’s amazing rainforest today. Generosity-with-ingenuity is transforming these villages into model hubs for #ecotourism. We - @myundp @MOFmalaysia @MyMOTAC, NGOs and Orang Asli community members - launched the Pos Lanai Eco-Tourism Hub today, as a learning and resources space for initiatives to grow sustainable tourism, rural entrepreneurship, and renewable energy that will further unlock economic potential while preserving Malaysia’s rich biodiversity, cuisines and cultural traditions.
