The Acceptable Way of Collecting Money for Nature Conservation from Visitors to AsoKuju National Park

Abstract

In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey on visitors to Aso-Kuju National Park and ascertained the approval and disapproval of the fund for nature conservation and the collection method. Furthermore, a cross-tabulation analysis was conducted targeting of fund supporters, and it became clear that many collection methods were acceptable. In particular, those who want to improve the environment will be allowed to collect at major bases, while those who want to manage the fund's secretariat costs and personnel costs should collect the way of collecting possibly from everyone and adding to the parking fee.
