Strictly handling violations aims to strengthen the management and protection of forest land in the area. Especially for Mang Den, an attractive tourist destination, with a cool climate thanks to diverse primeval forests.
Forests in Mang Den are often targeted by the commune government with a movement to plant forestry trees to increase coverage, contributing to creating a particularly natural climate for the national eco-tourism area.
