In addition, there is a vast tract of reserved forest and Gmelina and other pulpwood plantation, privately owned rubber, oil palm, cocoa plantations, etc.

Under Awi clan, the name of my village is either not there or spelt wrongly, AYAEBAM village. It shares a direct boundary with Awi and Nsan. Thank you very much.
