Summary

Afrikaans: In die verlede was die Khlong Khone-manglietbos in Thailand danksy 'n ongerepte ekosisteem redelik vrugbaar, biologies divers en gevul met 'n verskeidenheid waterlewe, waaronder garnale, skulpdiere en vis. Bewoners van die kanaaloewer kon hul brood verdien. Veranderende seewatergehalte, ontbossing en vervanging van woude met garnaalboerderye het egter die bosse gefragmenteer en 'n agteruitgang van die ekosisteem meegebring. Sedert 'n herbebossingsprojek in die gebied van stapel gestuur is het plaaslike inwoners en betrokke agentskappe meer aandag aan manglietbewaring geskenk. Die woude het tydsaam tot die vorige toestand herstel. Die Khlong Khone- manglietbewaringsentrum te Samut Songkhram, onder voogdyskap van die vleilandbestuursprojek van die Bang Taboon-rivierdelta, loods projekte wat met bewaring en herstel van manglietwoude verband hou, en organiseer herbebossingverwante aktiwiteite in samewerking met plaaslike dorpenaars. Die sentrum fasiliteer die aanleer en bekendstelling van manglietbebossing en -hervestiging, en verskaf inligting omtrent die lewenswyse van die 'see-sigeuners'.
English: In the past, the Khlong Khone Mangrove Forest in Thailand was quite fertile and biologically diverse, replete with a large number aquatic creature species, shrimps, shells, and fishes, for example, due to its unspoiled ecosystem. People living along the canal were able to earn their living. However, changing seawater conditions, deforestation, and clearance of forests for shrimp farming have caused fewer and fewer numbers of forests and the deterioration of the ecosystem. Since a reforestation project was introduced into the area, locals and concerned agencies have paid more attention to mangrove forest conservation. Today, the forests have gradually recovered to its former condition.
Khlong Khone Mangrove Conservation Center of Samut Songkhram, under the wetland management project at Bang Taboon river delta, carries out works associated with conservation and restoration of mangrove forests by organizing, in collaboration with local villagers, reforestation-related activities, and serves as a centre for learning and publicising mangrove afforestation and reforestation, as well as the way of life of the ‘Sea Gypsies’. |
