Park Ranger (G11) To anticipate the greater need for protected area managers, the Forestry Staff Training School should incorporate modules in protected area management as part of the curriculum for new officers. This is to reduce the need to continually train new protected area staff at the State level, and for all staff to at least know of what is to be expected of them if they were to be transferred to duties in state parks. This is also to alleviate the sense of alienation and isolation if staff were to be transferred to state parks, where their roles differ from the normal roles of forestry department: inventorying commercial timber trees, supervision of timber harvesting, and silviculture treatment. 72
Gunung Stong State Park Preliminary Management Plan Meanwhile, State Forestry Departments should not place problematic staff at state parks, while retaining the better staff for the normal forestry duties. Otherwise, there may be a stigma attached to working in a protected area, and the sense of isolation from other normal units may further demotivate the staff. 6.4.6 Entry Permits and User Fees Currently, visitors are charged RM2.00 per head for entering the Stong Resort, RM3.00 for entry into GSSP, and RM3.00 per head per day for camping at Baha Camp. The entry fee for GSSP should be maintained for the time being as a reduction may result in a drop in revenue for the State Government while an increase may not be justified until the park is wellestablished. Since the Forestry Department already has some experience in managing an IUCN Class II protected area in the form of the Perlis State Park, it is suggested that for the sake of uniformity and standardisation within the organisation, other charges should, as closely as possible, follow those of Perlis State Park. The suggested charges are as in Table 6.3 below. Table 6.3: Proposed Fee Structure of GSSP A. USER FEES RM No. Type of fees 1. Entry fees (per person per day) • Adult 3.00 • Schoolchildren (less than 18 years old) 1.00 2. Camping Fees (Per person per day) • Adult 3.00 • Schoolchildren 2.00 3. Camera (per unit) 5.00 4.
