President Prabowo Subianto Wednesday (09\/16) ordered that firm action must be taken against corporations proven to be responsible for forest and land fires, following a report from the National Police Chief regarding the fires deliberately ignited and the alleged involvement of dozens of corporations.<\/p>\n
The President ordered the revocation of permits and a thorough investigation into parties proven to have committed violations.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will take firm action against those identified by the National Police Chief and verified to have committed violations, particularly those that have been sanctioned in previous years. If they continue to violate the rules, then there is no other option but to revoke all of their permits,\u201d he said when leading a limited meeting on disaster management measures in some regions.<\/p>\n
According to the President, permits must be revoked immediately if the verification processes confirm the parties are responsible for forest and land fires because the Government grants zero tolerance against those acts.<\/p>\n
On that occasion, President Prabowo also gave specific instructions to the National Police Chief to deploy all relevant personnel to thoroughly investigate the alleged violations to ensure that those responsible for the fires face appropriate sanctions.<\/p>\n
The Head of the State also ordered all ranks within the Government to maintain their stamina in handling forest and land fires. Based on a report received by the President, the risks posed by\u00a0forest and land\u00a0fires are expected\u00a0to remain high\u00a0over the next\u00a0one and a\u00a0half months, requiring\u00a0the Government to\u00a0maintain and strengthen\u00a0its preparedness.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe must remain strong and resilient. We were informed that the situation will remain quite vulnerable over the next one and a half months. However, we will now work on comprehensive solutions,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
He went on to say that the current handling of forest and land fires must serve as a lesson for the country to build a stronger mitigation system since massive preparations are essential to ensure that future efforts to prevent and respond to forest and land fires can be undertaken more rapidly, in a better coordinated manner, and effectively.<\/p>\n
\u201cI need to reminded all of us that we have to make massive preparations and ensure that our future management measures will be better than what we are experiencing now. I need to emphasize that we must be able to control forest fires,\u201d he firmly said.
