Honoring the forest rangers of Chu Yang Sin

After 3 months of implementation, the award has received enthusiastic participation with nearly 60 candidates and nominees, honoring the achievements and tireless efforts in preserving the home of wildlife in Chu Yang Sin.

After a thorough evaluation process, the Organizing Committee selected 5 individuals and 5 groups with outstanding achievements in forest management, protection, and forest fire prevention and fighting to receive awards.

Total prize value up to 100 million VND.

The Organizing Committee awarded the "Chu Yang Sin Forest Keeper" award to outstanding individuals.

According to the Organizing Committee, Chu Yang Sin National Park is one of the areas with rich biodiversity, but is also facing many threats. However, the Park only has about 100 full-time rangers, while the forest area that needs protection is up to nearly 60,000 hectares. Thus, each ranger must take on the responsibility of protecting nearly 600 hectares of forest.

Director of Chu Yang Sin National Park presents the "Chu Yang Sin Forest Keeper" award to outstanding individuals.

In addition to difficult living conditions, rangers here also face many dangers from illegal exploitation and hunting. In 2018, a ranger at Chu Yang Sin National Park was injured by a gunshot, and in early 2022, seven rangers nearly lost their lives in an attack.

But with love for the profession and enthusiasm, they still persistently dedicate themselves to protecting and preserving the great forests of Chu Yang Sin.

Dr. Nguyen Thi Thu Trang - Founder and Director of WildAct awarded the "Chu Yang Sin Forest Keeper" award to outstanding groups.

Mr. Loc Xuan Nghia, Director of Chu Yang Sin National Park , shared: "This award is a recognition from society for the rangers who are silently overcoming all difficulties and dangers to protect the forest. The individuals and groups honored are not only a recognition for the persistent efforts of the forest rangers, but also a source of inspiration to spread the love of nature and awareness of forest protection to the community. We believe that when the silent contributions are heard and appreciated, more people will join hands to contribute to creating a more sustainable future for the ecosystem here."
