Affiliates
When small businesses and even large ones are struggling within the rural environment, there is no success in a new enterprise replacing an existing one. Rural System seeks no competition (except in effectiveness and improving the regional conditions) and will go out of its way to avoid it and assist those enterprises that already exist. We propose to seek affiliations with many groups for we believe that by unifying with them, they can become more strong, lasting, and improve the rural communities and their citizens.
We realize the individual spirit of existing enterprises and their people, grown tough from the past struggles toward success, and we expect no charity or open doors. We offer ourselves and our enthusiasm for success for rural citizens and their communities. In some cases the enterprises suggested herein already exist and we would welcome their services and direct cooperation for our mutual benefits. We may be come merely a good customer. Affiliation may provide desired public relations benefits. Tax benefits may be developed. We can share resources, expand market share, improve in name recognition, provide special support services (such as computer power), provide a temporary employment pool, and offer regional and international marketing via the Internet.
We open our door to potential affilitates. Let's talk, then take action. It can be good for us both, the region, and natural resources.
Several have suggested that we call when Rural System gets "up and running."
As examples of our openess and willingness to cooperate and affiliate as we develop, we offer a book promotion and an ecotourism site ...

Rest in Peace in Rural America by Charles L. Ciancio ISBN: 1-59453-960-X, $18.95 (4.00 s&h) Airleaf Publisher, 440p.(purchase from Epic Book Promotions 1-888-808-5440) A collage of knowledge, experience, and wisdom that was absorbed throughout the author’s 40-year career with Forestry in California. The author shows how citizens, especially those living in rural areas, are affected by the often-blundered decisions of a non-elected Fourth Branch of government that resides over the land. These decisions are meant to be positive, but they are made without careful study or expert testimony being reviewed. Consequences of these decisions include: These are just small portions of what you will learn from reading the pages of |

The Hiliya Resort The Hiliya Resort is Situated 145 km from Mysore in the Kerala State of India. Guests usually fly to Bangalore and then we will pick them from the international airport. Hiliya opened for tourists in 2005. There is 75 years old bungalow situated at the middle of 16 acres of organic farm. We have other organic farms within a radius of 2 km, in total about 40 acres. The Resort is a very suitable location for people with adventure and ecotourism interests. The Western Ghats is a biodiversity hotspot, especially the Brahmmagiri Hills! Staff are most interested in and specialize in these pursuits. For example, there is a place called "Pakshipathalam" located deep within the forest in the Brahmagiri Hills at an altitude of more than 1700 meters. There is a formation of large boulders, some as tall as two-story buildings. The deep caves there are home to a wide variety of birds, other animals, and distinctive species of plants. That journey involves an arduous 7 km trek through thick forest commencing at Thirunelli. There are many other diverse options. See the Wayanad Tourism site. |
