Temburong's rain forest tourism potential explored
One of our new members of academic staff, Dr.
Debra Enzenbacher, a Human Geographer, has undertaken some initial tourism
research in Brunei Darussalam by travelling to and within Temburong to
experience a variety of rain forest tourism products offered by different local
tour operators.

The tourism products range
from day trips, overnight trips and extended stays of two or more nights within
and/or adjacent to primary rain forest, each with their own characteristics and
special features.

Once fieldwork is
completed, the findings will form part of a research paper on tourism in
Brunei’s primary rain forests.
