Since September 2005, Lambusango Forest Conservation Project/LFCP (Program Konservasi Hutan Lambusango/PKHL) has published monthly 'Lambusango Lestari' Newsletter/Buletin Lambusango Lestari. Seven hundred copies are distributed to the Lambusango Forest stakeholders in Buton District, Bau-Bau, Kendari,  Bogor and Jakarta .  The newsletter can also be accessed in www.lambusango.com.  

In every edition, the newsletter is designed to discuss a particular topic/issue related with Lambusango Forest conservation actions. The selected issue for the January 2006 edition is 'Business for Conservation".  Most of the reports/news in the edition were prepared by the Village Business Development Coordinator (Sigit Wijanarko) of the project.
