He highlighted the importance of community-led initiatives in maintaining infrastructure, preserving cultural heritage, and promoting local economic activities. Movi further noted that learning from Mopungchuket’s successful community-driven projects would help the Razeba elders implement similar initiatives in their own villages, encouraging greater self-reliance and development.
