Ngo Huynh Trang, a 44-year-old former human resources manager, has successfully transitioned from a city career to operating a thriving eco-tourism business in Ca Mau. After leaving her corporate role in Ho Chi Minh City to prioritize family life, she invested over VND10 billion into developing six hectares of ancestral melaleuca forest. Despite initial financial setbacks with a failed crocodile farming venture, Trang persisted by creating Ca Mau Eco. The site emphasizes local heritage, offering visitors experiences such as traditional music performances, folk activities, and exploration of the U Minh Ha National Park region. By focusing on authentic cultural immersion and minimal environmental impact, the business now generates approximately $380,000 in annual revenue. Trang managed the development process independently, collaborating with local residents to provide unique regional experiences while preserving the natural landscape of Vietnam's southernmost province.
