PT KAP likely supplies FFB

Asia, owned by Sumber Tani

Land conflicts and licensing issues at PT KAP:
Within two weeks of the acquisition of PT KAP by Anglo Eastern Plantations in
2010, the Regent of Gunung Mas issued a Plantation Business Permit (IUP) for the
entire area, despite no Environmental Impact Analysis (AMDAL) having been
carried out. During the subsequent AMDAL process, local Dayak communities
stressed that they did not want the company on their lands.
The concerns of local people resulted in the Regent issuing a decree to PT KAP to
excise local land from their concession, and banned them from negotiating land
sales with local people without the regency government’s permission.
In January 2013, the Governor of Central Kalimantan issued a directive that PT
KAP must comply with the Regent’s instruction, and conduct an inventory of all
land claims within the concession.
Despite this, PT KAP continued its own process of acquiring land, and the
directives from both the Regent and Governor appeared to have been ignored.
Customary lands were not excised from the IUP area.
In 2012, a Permit for wood utilization (IPK) was issued to a third-party, PT
Kahayan Hutan Lestari (KHL). Clearing and planting began on the plantation
[bit.ly/2glvOhq].
In 2014, NGO reports accused PT KHL of clearing more timber on the concession
than was stipulated in its license, and PT KAP of operating without a HGU license
[bit.ly/2uSSq17].

Deforestation: Between January 2017 and August 2017, PT MAS
cleared around 10 hectares of forest on the South and Northeast of
