Recovery from the disaster of 2003.

Recovery from the disaster of 2003 Bukit Lawang was struck by a tremendous flood of the Bohorok river in November 2003. The flood wiped away 90% of the buildings, and killed 300 people. The orangutan rehabilitation center was also struck, although all but two orangutans were able to save themselves. Because of destroyed feeding facilities, and since the animals were able to survive in the forest, the activities at the center stopped for a while. But since tourism is an important source of income, and the orangutans are the main attraction in the area, rangers have resumed feeding activities, and it is possible to arrange jungle treks again. For the local economy in Bukit Lawang, eco-tourism is an important factor. Activities have started to re-develop Bukit Lawang and the Bohorok Orangutan Rehabilitation center into an Eco-tourist Viewing Area, meeting modern standards. In order to complete this activities, it is of vital importance that tourists return to this area. Enough facilities have survived or are rebuilt for a new steady flow of tourists. So please consider visiting what is still a great destination. This is actually a collection of the latest photos in the area of Bukit Lawang. from me to all. by VYCABL
