ECOTOURISM IN THE RAINFOREST OF CAMBODIA
The Cardamom Mountains of Cambodia is Southeast Asia's largest remaining rainforest.
In the mountains, there is a variety of ecosystems such as jungles, waterfalls and swamps.
Various rare, endangered animals and plants live in these ecosystems. The mountains are
also home to many local tribes.
In the past, tourism, deforestation and hunting threatened the natural forests and the
animals in them. This is now changing with the help of an organisation called Wild Life
Alliance. The organisation has turned a local village, called Chi Phat, into a tourism
community that protects the ecosystems and their animals. Through this new ecotourism,
local people can now support themselves without harming the environment. Instead, they
have become nature educators that teach tourists about their land. Some villagers work as
nature guides while others provide sustainable accommodation and operate restaurants
and various activities. Other locals work as rangers to protect the wildlife and limit where tourists can go.
Tourists can enjoy jungle hiking, mountain biking, traditional boat trips and camping
while learning about nature and the local tribes who live in the rainforest. Ecotourism has
helped develop the town of Chi Phát, which now has a school, a health clinic, clean water
sources and a recycling programme.
With the success of the ecotourism project, the Cambodian government and project
organisers hope more local people will get involved and develop ecotourism to more
areas in the rainforest. In the end, ecotourism has three goals: to protect the environment,
to help the local people, and to create awareness of the Cardamom Mountains as a place worth saving.
1. The Cardamom Mountains is the largest ___________ in Southeast Asia.
2. The village of Chi Phat has become a ___________ that protects the environment.
3. Some villagers are ___________ that control where tourists visit.
4. Chi Phat now has a school and a health clinic thanks to ___________.
5. The Cambodian government wants to ___________ ecotourism to other places in the rainforest.

Welcome to Focus on Vietnam. Today, I am excited to tell you about my visit to Huế
City – the historic capital city of Vietnam during the Nguyen Dynasty. There are so many
places to see in Huế, the tour guide decided to take a motorbike tour instead of a walking
tour in order to see as much as possible. On one side of the Huong River, also known as
the Perfume River, there are many pagodas and tombs as well as a complex of Huế
monuments, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. At the beginning of the tour, we
went to the Imperial City to visit the Citadel where the Nguyen families live. In the
central of the Citadel, there is a forbidden purple city, where only the Emperor and his
family were allowed inside. Most of this area is ruined, except the Emperor’s Reading
Room. I was amazed at the walls of the room that were covered with poems and
decorations. Next, we rode down motorbike to Thien Mu Pagoda, one of the most famous
pagodas in Vietnam. We didn’t stay too long because it was hot and crowded with many
tourists. Finally, we stopped along the Huong River, where there were food stalls and
wonderful shops. I wanted to stay longer in the shops but we have to return to a hotel. It
was a great first day in Hue City. Pronunciation
