Chi Phat is a showcase of turning the Southern Cardamom Mountains once known for its loggers and poachers into a world-class ecotourism destination, by protecting the natural and cultural resources, creating job and income opportunities for villagers as well as providing training and alternative livelihoods to hunters and loggers and improving commune infrastructure and public facilities.
