The REDD-plus mechanism treats community forestry as an important part of its agenda. Currently, there are active efforts to aggregate data on community forestry and use this to create databases. Thailand has a thriving community forestry, thus the collection of forest data in Thailand is expected to be of use to the Indochina peninsula. This survey focused on a high-quality community forestry in central Thailand and studied its organizational history, activities, and the state of residents in the forest's area of activity. As a result, sales of forest products such as bamboo shoots have led to improved incomes for the inhabitants and a better understanding of people in the forest. This also explains why forest activities have continued. Because there are many areas that use bamboo shoots in Indochina, the handling of bamboo forests in REDD-plus is considered important.
