A Conservation Stronghold in Remote Kalimantan

East Kalimantan’s wilderness has managed to keep the Wehea Protected Forest “hidden” amid logging and oil drilling. The 38,000-hectare forest is home to a variety of protected species, including the orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus). In the face of numerous challenges, the Wehea Dayak tribe has taken firm action to safeguard and preserve their forest and its resources, and are now working with the government, non-profit organizations and even companies. Meanwhile, the customary community also strives to maintain the natural balance by celebrating Lom Plai, a thanksgiving tradition. In celebration of World Biodiversity Day on May 22, Tempo English reports.

Clock Ticking for Kalimantan's Mammals

Foreign researchers rang the alarm bells. "The survival of endangered species in Kalimantan is increasingly threatened," warned Matthew Struebig, biological conservation professor at the University of Kent in England. Struebig and his colleagues outlined the threat in the January 22 edition of the journal Current Biology.

Based on the researchers' findings, almost half of the animals' habitat will disappear in the coming two or three decades. In other words, one in three mammal species on the island of Borneo will lose 30 percent or more of their habitats by 2080.

Kalimantan Cruising

A few enterprising business people in Central Kalimantan province have found a new way of touring the area's meandering rivers and dense forests. By modifiying the Dayak's traditional boat, they have created a floating hotel, which can take visitors downstream to traditional villages and observe up close the flora and fauna of pristine forests. In return, the local population earn additional income without having to cut a single tree. However, such efforts are not supported by the proper infrastructure to make the enterprise more effective. Tempo English reports from Central Kalimantan.

Saving Kalimantan Forests

Kalimantan has the largest forest area in Indonesia, and the highest rate of forest destruction among the archipelago's islands. According to the NGO Save Our Borneo, 80 percent of forest destruction in Kalimantan is caused by expanding oil palm plantations. Pastor Samuel Oton Sidin of the OFM Cap decided to do something about the loss of forests on the island. He mobilized communities to replant trees in barren mountain slopes, succeeding in greening 108 hectares of land around the Tunggal mountains of West Kalimantan province. Environmentalist Galuh Sally managed to plant 1.6 million of gaharu tree seedlings in South Kalimantan. On the occasion of World Tree Day on November 21, Tempo English reports on how heroes like Father Oton and Galuh are able to motivate people to fight and save their forests.

Cutting out Kalimantan’s Heart

In Central Kalimantan’s Tanjung Puting National Park—one of the largest conservation forests in Indonesia—millions of cubic meters of ramin (Gonystylus spp) and meranti (Shorea spp) trees are cut down, hauled out and sold illegally, costing the country more than Rp70 billion a year.

Pangkalan Bun, the capital of the West Kotawaringin Regency in Central Kalimantan, has become the most important base for the illegal business, a trade which is spreading like a contagion. It has given birth to a “local king” who has the power to make people from illegal loggers to high-ranking officials tremble with fear. His name is Abdul Rasyid, one of the members of the People’s Consultative Assembly (MPR) from the Golkar Party.

Who is Abdul Rasyid? Is it true that he is the mastermind behind the massive timber theft in Tanjung Puting? Follow TEMPO’s investigation.

The Battle for Kalimantans Coal

The irony began on an island with plentiful mineral resources. It was noticeable in Sangatta, a small town in East Kalimantan where the earth is blackened with abundant coal. Extracted for almost a decade by PT Kaltim Prima Coal (KPC)a joint venture between two foreign giants, Britains British Petroleum and Australias Rio Tintoincome from the mineral should have been allocated to Indonesia as of 1995. However, the case of divestment of KPC shares, delayed for the last six years, keeps the wealth beyond the expectation of public welfare promotioneven amid the euphoria of political and economic decentralization. The tradition of low transparency, the popular sense of justice being victimized by local elite rivalry, the feud between central and regional institutions, high-level lobbying and the trickery of mock firms are the murky stories arising from the heat of the struggle for Sangatta coal.

Yan Karowa Iniyandit District Chief
"We must grow creatively"

Oegenetan villagers may owe its well-being to the initiative of the Iniyandit District Chief, Yan Karowa. The 46-year-old man grew up in Serui and earned his teacher's degree at Cendrawasih University in Jayapura. He served as a teacher before moving to Iniyandit in 1996 and was appointed as the district's secretary.

As a civil servant, Yan had to travel to villages to collect data. He said that he had to go through muddy dirt roads to get to most of the villages in Papua. Once there, he would visit families in their homes. "That's when the people would tell me about their problems," he said. He then tried to ease the poverty in Oenegetan village, one of the poorest in his area, by establishing the Nonggup Cooperative. Last month Tempo English reporter Amanda Siddharta interviewed Yan in Tanah Merah, capital of Boven Digoel regency, two hours away from Iniyandit. Excerpts:
