Dear Friend,

In other letters I have told you that the future for Indonesia’s tropical rain forests, the principal habitat for orangutans, looks bleak.

Indonesia has just entered the Guinness Book of World Records as having the fastest rate of deforestation in the world.

The government of Kalimantan Tengah (Central Indonesian Borneo), the province where OFI does much of its work, has loudly proclaimed its adherence to “green principles”; simultaneously, it has proposed a Land Use Plan for the next five years that will convert four million hectares (approximately ten million acres) of prime orangutan habitat, tropical rain forest, to palm oil plantations.
