How amazing! It is an awesome treat to be able to have fun and do good. Eco Tourism is gaining in the Mangroves. Just what are the mangroves good for? The mangroves are a unique resource for Malaysia. The mangroves make a natural barrier against coastal soil and sand erosion. They help to prevent flooding. The roots are like a natural pollution treatment factory. They keep the water clean and usable. Mangrove trees are a major source of food for the many fish and marine life that call the waters around this nation home. Mangroves are fast growing and they replace themselves quickly. This makes them ideal in providing needed lumber. They also can be made into poles and charcoal. Poles and Charcoal are two major sources of revenue for the people. River tours through the mangroves are unique and exciting. Villagers, Charcoal factories, boat owners, and park rangers are now working together to protect their resources and to provide a valuable experience for visitors. Mangrove adventures are different each time. The Malaysian Jungle is constantly changing. It is exciting! It is diverse! It is uniquely, Malaysian. Where else can you go and help rejuvenate a forest, by planting small mangrove saplings? You can even choose to visit the Charcoal Factory! Kuala Sepetang Charcoal Factory The charcoal factory in Kuala Sepetang is in the center of some of the most spectacular mangrove forests. Kuala Sepetang is in northern Malaysia, near Taiping. The trees must grow to a correct size and then they are harvested to be used for charcoal. Once an area is harvested, it is then replanted and left to grow for the next 30 years. The trees are brought to the factory during the high tide. Once at the factory, the bark is stripped and the trees cleaned. Once they have been cleaned, they are then placed in large outdoor ovens called cones. Here they are baked. A simple process, but one that must be done precisely. The trees dry for 8-10 days at 220 degrees with a small opening. Then the oven is completely shut for another 10-14 days. The dry logs then must cool for another 8 days or so. The factory has about 100 ovens going at any one time. It employs more than 80 people. What a fantastic place to visit! It is all part of the mangrove adventures. Every part of the tree is used. The charcoal that is perfect is sold and income generated for the village. The imperfect is sold and used locally at a cheaper price. In times past the charcoal was used for toothpaste. The moist part is still used medically among the local villagers. Burning charcoal is a most excellent way to control mosquitoes.
