Banteay Meanchey eyes mountains as potential natural heritage areas
Mon, 28 December 2020
Banteay Meanchey Provincial authorities are studying nine mountains in Malai, Preah Netr Preah, and Mongkol Borei districts, including Sisophon town, with the intention of listing them as natural heritage sites once the study is complete and a number of details have been settled.
Malai district governor Dieb Chhuon told The Post in December that local authorities had held meetings with the residents of villages and communes in those areas to discuss their plans.
As an initial step the meeting participants had agreed to settle on official names for any mountains that bore names that were already being used at other heritage sites and would therefore have to be officially renamed as part of the process.
