SABAH KAMPUNG COFFEE REPLANTATION PROGRAM |
CKCC is involved with the State’s Agriculture Board to encourage Sabah’s local farmers to grow Coffee Beans at their own land, conducted along the PPP Principle – Public Private Partnership. |
The Coffee Bean chosen for this program is the near-exclusive Liberica Beans, with its uniquely pungent aroma & flavour. |
This Partnership is forged on a tri-party benefits’ basis as follows:
On a broader scale, both CKCC and local farmers as Buyer / Supplier will be shielded from fluctuations in coffee bean prices thanks to this arrangement. |
Meeting with the local village folks during initiation of Coffee Bean plantation scheme. |
As well, by concentrating on growing indigenous Liberica beans, Sabah will have the opportunity to showcase a bean that is unique to its landscape, and attract tourism inflow to its eco-tourism linked to the Liberica plantations. |
Tourists keenly examining coffee trees whilst listening to presentations. |
With increased awareness and reputation, Sabah as a unique Liberica bean producing state will gain worldwide recognition such as Hawaii (for its Kona beans) and Jamaica (for its Blue Mountain beans). |
