Indonesia would preserve its forests “with or without international help”

Indonesia committed to rainforests protection despite financial constraints. Even Indonesia would preserve its forests “with or without international help”.
Yudhoyono said Thursday in a speech during the opening session of the Oslo Climate and Forest Conference at Holmenkollen Park Hotel Rica in the surrounding hills of Oslo: "Working with our developed country partners, we will protect Indonesia’s globally significant carbon- and biodiversity-rich tropical rainforests while helping local populations become more prosperous."
The President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono's statement affirmed his pledge on Wednesday night that Indonesia "would conduct a moratorium for two years, where we stop the conversion of peat land and of forests", during a historical agreement signing with Norway, which provides a US$1 billion grant for Indonesia in phases to protect the Southeast Asian nation's forests.
Jens Stoltenberg, Norway's Prime Minister, said: "Based on a March's international conference in Paris, about 54 countries agreed to provide $4 billion in commitment to take necessary actions to protect the world's largest rainforests located in Brazil and Indonesia, which function as global "lungs" to transform carbon dioxide into oxygen."
According to Greenpeace, in Indonesia, forest areas of a size equaling 300 soccer fields vanish every hour. Visit this link below for more complete news:

Dear Blogger, Indonesia gives more attention to the environment during the reign of President Yudhoyono. In the late 2009, Indonesia released environmental law no 32 / 2009 in order to improve its previous legislation. Indonesia government would impose more severe penalty for anyone who violates this law.
