陈超耀：导游需扮演生态旅游“前线大使”角色
砂拉越持续巩固其作为区域领先生态旅游目的地的地位，并在国际层面取得多项成就，其中包括努力将峇哥国家公园和蓝卑尔国家公园打造为东盟遗产公园（AHP）。 据砂拉越旅游、创意产业及表演艺术部副部长拿督陈超耀表示，砂拉越目前拥有67个完全保护区，其中包括47个国家公园、15个自然保护区和5个野生动物保护区。 其中，姆鲁国家公园和尼亚国家公园已被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产，而砂拉越三角洲地质公园预计将于今年9月被列入联合国教科文组织世界地质公园。 他今日在峇哥国家公园为公园导游培训课程主持开幕时，如是说。 拿督陈超耀强调，必须确保生态保育与生态旅游活动之间取得平衡，同时强调各方负有道义责任，为子孙后代保护环境和文化遗产。 他还提醒公园导游，要扮演砂拉越生态旅游的“前线大使”角色，不仅要向游客提供知识，还要传递保护信息，并培养对大自然的责任感。 根据2030年后冠病疫情战略，砂拉越的目标是到2030年培训至少300名公园导游。 迄今为止，砂拉越森林企业机构（SFC）已培训约400名持证公园导游，但目前只有231名仍在工作。 拿督陈超耀也呼吁，更多本地青年把握此类培训机会，提升能力，创造就业机会，增强砂拉越作为世界级生态旅游目的地的竞争力。
