Perkembangan Indonesia yang menggembirakan.  Presiden
SBY mengatakan dengan jelas bahwa kepolisian, TNI,
kehutanan dan imigrasi secara berjamaah terlibat dalam
penebangan kayu secara liar di Irja.  Begitu beliau
bicara, Majen Adam Damiri, penanggung jawab operasi
TNI mengatakan akan memeriksa apakah terlibatnya TNI
hanya menyangkut oknum atau institusi.  Mari kita
tunggu perkembangannya; sementara berulang kali kita
dengar bahwa anggaran TNI jauh dari mencukupi --
karena itu TNI terpaksa melakukan bisnis.  Dalam
suasana serba agak transparan sekarang agaknya sulit
bagi TNI untuk melanjutkan sebagian bisnisnya.

Salam,
RM

SBY: Police, military involved in logging 
Rendi A. Witular and Eva C. Komandjaja, The Jakarta
Post, Jakarta

Military and police personnel along with officials
from the ministries of forestry and immigration are
all involved in the lucrative business of illegal
logging in Papua, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono
has proclaimed.

His statement, quoted by Ministry of Forestry MS Kaban
on Tuesday, drew immediate signals of apparent
cooperation from the mentioned institutions.
Operations assistant to the Indonesian Military (TNI)
chief Maj. Gen. Adam Damiri, said the TNI is
investigating whether their involvement was limited to
their personnel, or whether the institution itself was
involved. 

Minister Kaban said, "According to the President,
personnel of the eastern Navy, the police in Papua,
the Trikora Regional Military Command (based in Papua
provincial capital of Jayapura), local offices of the
ministries of forestry and immigration in Papua, all
have indications of being involved in illegal logging
in Papua." He had earlier attended an unscheduled
Cabinet meeting on illegal logging. 

The meeting followed on last week's revelations by the
London-based Environmental Investigation Agency and
the Indonesian group Telapak. It's report accused the
TNI and other officials of smuggling 300,000 cubic
meters of timber per month from Indonesia (mostly
Papua) to China, with a value of more than US$1
billion. 

Kaban on Tuesday named some of the business people
allegedly involved, with their main operations taking
place in Papua, Jambi, East Kalimantan, Dumai in Riau
and North Sumatra -- but he did not name any high
ranking officials or military and police officers. 

"There's no way the TNI is not involved. The ship
carrying the illegal timber was guarded by warships,"
he said. 

The President has instructed that an "integrated
crackdown" take place in the next two weeks, Kaban
said, against all suspected parties, which would cost
some Rp 8 billion (about $860,000). 

National Police Chief Gen. Da'i Bachtiar said apart
from cooperating in the crackdown, his office would
conduct "shock therapy" against personnel suspected of
involvement in the crime. A former police chief of
Sorong regency in Papua and five of his subordinates
are on trial for alleged illegal logging in the
province. 

Also on Tuesday deputy chief of detectives at the
National Police Insp. Gen. Dadang Garnida said police
are seeking funding of Rp 48 billion a year in order
to conduct six operations per annum, or Rp 8 billion
per operation, against illegal logging. 

He said that with the Rp 8 billion spent in an earlier
operation, police had managed to recover around Rp 1.5
trillion worth of illegal timber.
