Indonesia has forests right located outside the state’s territory. What are the requirements for the community to be able to contribute to the supply of wood and non-wood based materials at the national level of national development?

The development of community forest management system

So that state forests can be ‘rehabilitated’ perfectly, without being burdened with the obligation to over-produce teak wood. In this connection, there needs to be an effort to develop the development of teak forest management on community-owned land so that it runs in a sustainable manner and meets the standards of Sustainable Community Forest Concession (PHRL).
