ECOMY's 3rd Anniversary

It's been three years since the Ecotourism and Conservation Society of Malaysia, or ECOMY was founded. Their aim was to focus on sustainable ecotourism as the way forward to ensure that conservation values are upheld at all key natural heritage sites in Malaysia. Celebrating their anniversary this week, we catch up with Andrew Sebastian, the Co-Founder & CEO of ECOMY, to find out what they've been up to, this past year and how much of their aim has been achieved, thus far.
