RE: [andamanicobar] Presidential recipe for island disaster
I agree completely with Mr. Satyendra kumar TIwari. Low intenisty tourism
carried out by the locals is what should be ideally called eco-tourism. Of
course benefits of tourism should also go back into the site in some ways
like better management etc. THere are good examples in West BEngal int his
regard- one in SUnderbans and one in Darjeeling. Maybe HELP TOURISM can
throw more light on this. Eco-tourism is a very misunderstood term in
Andhra Pradesh. Flashy artificial lightings, concretising of the lakes and
ponds, all is part of eco-tourism promoted by the tourism corporation here.
I have also heard of birds like emu etc. being introduced as part of
eco-tourism.
