One of the measures is an alliance between my office, the Ministry of Forestry, the police and the military. The companies are asked to fund regreening of denuded forests which will be named after them. Since forest fires grabbed a global attention in 1981, we have improved the forest management system but we want to do more. For example, the current forestry law requires that forest concessionaires are responsible for everything that takes place in the concessions, including fires. But this is not very effective.

We need an edict from the Supreme Court to rectify that. Now that the regencies have become autonomous, more problems have arisen. There is confusion when it comes to who has the authority to issue licenses or who is responsible for handling fires. It's not easy. One big blow won't show any immediate result.
