Dear Petitioners,

The Australian Orangutan Project would like to thank you for supporting this campaign.

As a result of your signatures, over 9000 signatures were sent directly to the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry.

Following our efforts, the proposal to clear 33,600 ha of Sumatran rainforest for pulp paper production in the Bukit Tigapuluh ecosystem was rejected by the Indonesian government.

HOWEVER, we now have another battle on our hands with precious remaining rainforest in Sumatra.

We need your help to stop a large multi-national logging company, BARITO PACIFIC from destroying a critical part of the remaining Bukit Tigapuluh Ecosystem.

Please help us NOW by signing this below petition!

To the Directors of Asia Pulp & Paper/Sinar Mas Group,

We, the undersigned, petition that immediate action is taken by your company to withdraw its proposal to clear 33,600 ha of Sumatran rainforest for pulp paper production in the Bukit Tigapuluh ecosystem.

We implore that your company ceases conversion of natural forest to industrial forest in Bukit Tigapuluh ecosystem area and beyond.

This petition is now closed.
