The dominant vegetation and host trees were scrutinized for the possible exudates utilized and processed by the bees. These are tabulated and charted with images from the Meliponaries, Bee Farms and Eco-Parks visited in many different islands of the Philippines regions. The resultant propolis and cerumen textures and consistency were compared for value-added product derivative considerations. The considerations include possibilities for use in aromatherapy, cosmeceuticals, nutraceuticals and pharmaceuticals. Some recommendations on the chemical processes and procedures for product derivatives are provided herein. Harvesting and post-harvest modus operandi are suggested with references from F.A.O. literature and past experiences.

In Indonesia, Meliponiculture (stingless bees farming) has been considered as part of bee farming. However, effort of bee farmers to Meliponiculture was not as much as honey bees due to lower honey production. Most Meliponiculture was conducted to provide specific types of honey used as part of local herbal medicine.
Long dry season, absconding honey bees, decreasing honey price caused, and reports of bees attacks caused most of tropical honeybees farm abandoned along with Meliponiculture. Unlike honeybees, low energy demand of stingless bees made their colonies more likely to survive during abandonment. Nowadays, recent popularity of propolis as sources on medical made most of bee farmers in Indonesia conducts Meliponiculture.
This chapter will describes the history of scientific research on stingless bees, state of Meliponiculture in Indonesia, and future challenge of Indonesia Meliponiculture.

There are at least 22 species confirmed by taxonomic studies since 1854 in Thailand (Schwarz, 1939). Anuchit and Surapong reported an unrecorded species in Thailand in 2001. In the year 2003, Tetragonula sirindhornae Micherner and Boongird is reported as a new species found in Thailand (Boongird, 2003). Thai people in all parts of Thailand have known stingless bee as indigenous animal and they have used stingless bee products in many purposes. Almost all stingless bee products were hunted from natural colonies.
Stingless bee culture
Stingless bee culture for specific purposes in Thailand was known in this decade. From the survey between year 2000 – 2004, the formal stingless bee culture was found in two regions namely the South and the East. In the South, a Muslim beekeeper has kept Tetragonula pagdeni colonies around his house in order to harvest the honey.

It runs the Regional Apiculture Center (RAC) for Bicol and it is located in the municipality of Pili, Province of Camarines Sur, in the southeast of Luzon. Its sole mandate is to promote beekeeping technology emphasizing on keeping stingless bees, tagged as Meliponiculture.
The RAC for Bicol is manned by a multidisciplinary team of dedicated faculty members involved on researches dealing with the biology and culture of the stingless bee species, Tetragonula biroi. Together with small holders of local communities a technological package was developed to keep these bees for their economic exploration, using halved coconut shells as the bee’s nesting cavity, with innovations introduced. In addition, learner-friendly methods for the extraction of feral stingless bee colonies from the forest, for colony establishment and splitting, and the production as well as utilization of stingless bee products, among others are included in the package. It is characterized for its very low capital and labour-time investment requirement suitable for marginalized farmers.
RAC for Bicol at CBSUA offers facilities and installations for the communal use of local beekeepers, like rooms for seminars and discussions, colonies for hands-on training, an interpretation center and a honey press extractor. Extension services and technical assistance to beekeepers in the region included assistance to beekeepers in marketing and promoting their products and meliponaries. Tangible outputs have been presented in scientific forums locally and internationally, published in reputable journals. Moreover, audio-visual materials are available both print and audio on beekeeping activities.
Increasingly among graduate and undergraduate students in research possibilities to add value to the products obtained from the economic exploration of T. biroi. Students gain
appreciation for these bees thereby encouraging them to plunge into an enterprise like keeping stingless bees. To date, researches are being done by students and faculty members of CBSUA so as to strengthen the technology on stingless bees. On a lighter note, its research outputs have won awards in the local and regional levels.
