ABC News crew with tons of filming equipment is moving hardly inside Son Doong led by Howard Limbert and Ho Khanh.
Mr. Ho Khanh the founder of Son Doong 20 years ago, and Mr. Howard Limbert from British Caving Association who has devoted his life to make research inside Son Doong were awarded the Medal of Labour by Vietnam goverment last week. In 1990, during forestry work, Ho Khanh discovered the small cave vault with strong wind and thick fog above. In his experience, he thought there is a cave inside, but didn’t explore inside. In 2008, when British Caving Association led by Howard Limbert proposed Ho Khanh to show the way to that cave, he spent 2 days find the return to the path and the World’s biggest cave is revealed. Apart from Son Doong, Ho Khanh is the expert who discovered other 30 caves in Phong Nha – Ke Bang national park. Howard Limbert is the pioneer to make deep research about the archeology inside Son Doong and broadcast the cave to the world. This year, the 2 heroes support the local government to develop eco-tourism in Phong Nha. Due to wild nature and no tourism infrastructure inside the national park, only a limitation of 450 tourists is allowed to visit Son Doong every year.
