Recommendations, 1993. 1. A special Parks unit inside the park and a special Forest unit outside the park should be established to deal specifically with rhino protection.
2. The new anti-poaching units need guns and equipment if their tasks are to include effective patrol work.
3. Number of game scouts should be increased from 60 to 100.
4. More army posts should be set up in the western side of the park.
5. Army posts should have more walkie-talkies and transport.
6. Leadership effectiveness should be regularly checked. Frequent changing of Director General needs to be stopped.

8. Publicity in local newspapers to state that price of rhino horn has fallen in the Far East.
