The fact that local women, with the support of the private sector, participate in boating to earn income from heritage tourism, thereby continuing to practice and promote their traditional and sustainable lifestyle is a vivid illustration of how the public and private sectors can work together to create value and bring many positive impacts to the lives of local people.
