Background
This document made in Mangkawagu Village, Tongod is meant to document
the traditional knowledge of the Sungai Rumanau on wild honey gathering
and conservation.
The Sungai Rumanau can be found around the head of Milian River and the
district of Tongod. The distance from the nearest town is about 60 KM from
the town of Tongod and 80KM from the town of Telupid.
This documentation aims to promote good practices of our community in
resource conservation. Nowadays, resource conservation has become a key
topic because of the threat of resource extinction and climate change.
Thus, our Sungai Rumanau community in Mangkawagu have documented our
practice that has been passed down from our ancestors, with the purpose of
giving insight to the public on our contribution in forest conservation as well
as resources in general.
