All create a cool, fresh space. “My grandparents and parents used to do a lot of farming, but they did not clear the forest indiscriminately. In places with waterfalls, do not destroy trees. Now, children, grandchildren, and villagers alike, have to keep the forest to make the waterfall more beautiful…” – said Ms. Y Deng, a resident of Dak Chum 2 village, Tu Mo Rong commune.
