 A LITTLE ABOUT

ILLEGAL LOGGING
 Definition of Ilegal Logging
Illegal logging is the harvest, transportation, purchase or sale of timber in

violation of laws.

The harvesting procedure itself may be illegal, including

1. Using corrupt means to gain access to forests

2. Extraction without permission or from a protected area

3. The cutting of protected species

4. Or the extraction of timber in excess of agreed limits.

Illegalities may also occur during transport, such as

1. Illegal processing and export;

2. Fraudulent declaration to customs;

3. And the avoidance of taxes and other charges.

 Ilegal Logging in Indonesia

A joint UK-Indonesian study of the timber industry in

Indonesia in 1998 suggested that about 40% of throughout
was illegal, with a value in excess of $365 million. More
recent estimates, comparing legal harvesting against known
domestic consumption plus exports, suggest that 88% of
logging in the country is illegal in some way. Malaysia is the
key transit country for illegal wood products from Indonesia.
In March 2004, Greenpeace carried out a series of actions against a cargo ship transporting

timber from the Indonesian company Korindo, which was being imported into France, UK,

Belgium and the Netherlands.Korindo is a company proven to be using illegal timber from

the last rainforests of Indonesia. In May 2003, an Indonesian Government investigation

confirmed that Korindo was receiving illegal timber from notorious timber barons known

to obtain timber from an orang-utan refuge – the Tanjung Puting National Park. Tanjung

Puting National Park is a 4,000 square kilometre conservation area of global importance. It

is recognised as a world biosphere reserve by the United Nations and forms the largest

protected area of swamp forest in South-East Asia.

FACTORS AFFECT THE ILLEGAL LOGGING

• Social condition of society

• Long-term economic crisis

• High demand of basic material

• High opportunity to coordinating with GAKKUM apparatus

• Corruption, collution and nepotism

• Weakness of Forest PAM System

• Disparatism between the price of legal and illegal products

• Sustainable economic crisis resulted in high
prices – the price of consumption goods

• High demand for wood both inside and

outside the country are not comparable with

• Ability to supply the timber industry (illegal)

llegal logging is a pervasive problem, causing enormous damage to forests, local communities and to the

economies of producer countries. Despite the economic importance of trade in timber and forest

products, major international timber consumer countries, such as the EU, have no legal means to halt

the import of illegally sourced forest products, because the identification of illegally logged or traded

timber is technically difficult. Therefore, a legal basis for normative acts against timber imports or other

products manufactured out of illegal wood is missing. Currently, scientific methods to pinpoint the

geographic origin of timber is under development. Possible actions to restrict imports cannot meet with

WTO regulations of non-discrimination. They must instead be arranged in bilateral agreements.

The Problem
In Indonesia illegal logging is a massive problem that has resulted in undermining

the rule of law and substantial revenues to the state. It encourages forest crimes,

and has serious economic and social implications to the poor and disadvantaged.

The threat to ecosystems and biodiversity is enormous with very little long-term

advantages for anyone other than those who are responsible for the plunder and

smuggling of timber from one country to the next.

The Problem
NEGATIVE
EFFECTS
 Deforestation
 Extension global warming
 Loss of biodiversity
 Undermines the rule of law
 Undermine responsible forest management
 Encourage corruption
 Reduce the income of producer countries
 Serious economic and social implications for the poor and disadvantaged
 Undermines international security
 Associated with corruption, money laundering, organized crime, human rights abuses

and, in some cases, violent conflict.

 Destabilise international market

 Affects those European companies especially the small and medium sized

companies that are behaving responsibly and ready to play by fair rules.
 Causing flooding

 Causing erosion, landslides

 Loss of water catchment areas

 Reduced levels of oxygen in the air

 Declining soil fertility

 The animals and plants lose their habitats

 Several species of animals and plants threatened with extinction
 Animals lose their habitats will enter into any settlements, thus
threatening human life
 The decline in income levels of forest surrounding the community, so that
power people buy into decline.
 Occurrence of timber price competition is not fair, because a lot of wood
sold in the market from illegal logging results obtained with low cost.
17.
 Large losses for the Government every year
 POSITIVE IMPACT
1. Perpetrators of illegal logging gets profits.

2. People got a job as a lumberjack in a sustainable forest and

continuously make money from that job.

3. Communities around the forests increasingly prosperous and will

have an impact also on the increasing level of education

4. We are no shortage of paper produced from trees.

5. Furniture production increases.

1. Promote the prohibition laws of Illegal Logging

2. Law enforcement should be further improved

3. Empowerment of forest village communities must be increased, either through the

program PHBM Perum Perhutani with her and other programs of the Central

Government and Regional

4. Eradication of traders - traders as wooden fences and wood industries that use raw

materials from illegal logging results in a continuous and programmed by involving

the various elements in society.

5. Among departments by involving all relevant agencies.

6. Prevention measures must be carried out by quickly, either from the field level up to

the level of the center and at the international level

7. Conduct system cutting Select

8. Making Reforestation
