NO SLEEP, TILL…MORATORIUM!


Civil society and environmental groups in Indonesia issued a joint statement urging the Indonesian government to follow through with logging moratorium plans, as described here in The Jakarta Post.  Voice of America News is also reporting businesses in Indonesia have also started to warm to the idea of the logging freeze, including a spokesperson from Asia Pulp and Paper who said that the freeze would provide a good opportunity to take a step back, take stock of what has gone wrong, and then fix it.  The government has indicated the moratorium will go ahead as scheduled, explained by The Jakarta Post here.

About time Indonesia gets onboard
