Pref ace
Forest plays an indispensable role i n climate change. About 86 to 93 million hectares of Indonesia's territory
is wooded areas, comprising almost half of the country's total territory. But the latest data i n the M i n i s t r y
of Forestry indicate that Indonesia has been losing some 1.18 m i l l i o n hectares of forest annually. This
causes deforestation and the change of land use, including that of the enormous peat land, all of w h i c h
triggers 6 0 % emission.
Forest degradation, coupled w i t h international community's pressure over countries which have huge forest
areas, encourages Indonesia to declare a commitment to slowing the emission due to changes of land and
forest use by 26% i n 2020. To fulfill the target, Indonesia needs to curb emission caused by deforestation
and forest degradation by implementing a scheme called Reducing Emission f r o m Deforestation and Forest
Degradation (REDD+).
One of strategies that REDD+ implements is to apply an initiative to minimize, t o cope w i t h , and to prevent
illegal logging. Experts perceive REDD+ to have potential to help fight illegal logging by providing financial
incentive to endorse law enforcement, change of behavior, and reformation of forest governance.
For the last three years, Multistakeholder Forestry Programme (MFP) I I has been supporting the Governm e n t of Indonesia to fight illegal logging. Through multi-stakeholder forums, M F P I I has developed a
system of timber legality to fight illegal logging and illegal trade of timber. MFP successfully persuades the
Government of Indonesia to adopt a policy named the Timber Legality Verification System (SVLK) which
applicable to all processed and traded forest products.
SVLK helps assure that industry- obtains raw materials o f timber through legal means f r o m sustainable
forest management (SFM) by complying w i t h legality aspects, transparent
