Timber Plantation Permit (IUPHHK – HT) Begin in 1996, the areal and numbers of IUPHHK-HT area has experienced a significant increased. However, this extension hasn’t followed by the productivity of plants in that area. The realization of planting in 1996 was only 50% and instead decreased to 43% in 1997, and last remained to 32% in 1998. While in 2006, the planted area of this plant forest was only 2.88 million ha if compared with the target of 10.2 million ha based on the licenses issued by the government.

Development of Oil Palm Plantation According to the Department Of Agriculture, there are 27 million ha. of Unproductive forestlands in Indonesia suited to conversion to oil palm, while no less than 19,840,000 hectares of land have already been slated for oil palm development in provincial government land us plans (Sawit Watch and Forest Peoples Programme, 2005).
15. 2. Reduce Emission from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) Indonesia Forestry Review Forest Conversion for Mining Concession Up to now, the licenses issued by ESDM (Mineral Resource Energy) are about 1,830s licenses (KK, KP & PKP2B) with the total concession area of 28.27 million ha. 150 licenses are located in the preserve forest and conservation forest areas with total of 11 million ha . ( JATAM – Indonesian Mining Network, 2006). The threat of conversion to preserve forest and conservation forest areas is also come from Oil and Natural Gas Mining (MIGAS). Up to 2006, Department of ESDM has issued 202 licenses of MIGAS blocks (offshore and onshore). From those, there are 68 blocks (about 1.8 million ha) overlapping with 45 Conservation areas such as National Park, Nature Preservation, Animal Preservation, Ecotourism Park and Jungle Park.

21. First, Initiatives and projects related to climate change should employ right-based approach. Therefore, all initiatives and projects related to Climate Change should adopt the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples , as it sets out minimum standard to promote and protect Indigenous Peoples’ Rights. CONCLUSION REDD IS IMPOSSIBLE, UNLESS SOME PREREQUISITES ARE FULFILLED
22. All initiatives and projects related to Climate Change should encourage and provide space for indigenous peoples to develop mitigation and adaptation alternatives based on their indigenous knowledges and practices. CONCLUSION REDD IS IMPOSSIBLE, UNLESS SOME PREREQUISITES ARE FULFILLED
