Parliament: Investigate Foreign Parties Involved
Saturday, March 30, 2013
JAKARTA (AFP): Parliament urged law enforcement officials to resolve the alleged cases of illegal logging or illegal logging, particularly those involving foreign parties.
The study of Indonesian Corruption Watch (ICW) in 2011 showed, the potential state losses due to crime in the forestry sector in the district Seruyan, Sambas, Ketapang, and Bengkayang reached Rp 9.149 trillion.
The magnitude of the losses caused by illegal logging cases should receive special attention. Government can also take part in preventing loss of this country by revoking licenses of companies that rated 'recalcitrant', as did the East Kutai Regent Isran Noor the British company, Churchill Mining. Kutai Regent Kertanegara should also dare to take similar action to revoke the license of MP Evans & Co.
