OG and ASG

ESG

There is net loss of 251.37 ha of forest from 2007 to 2009, largely contributed by Magdiwang

It indicates that even though the forest

cover was not significantly reduced, the

quality of forest is decreasing. This can

have substantial effects on the capacity of

forest ecosystems to maintain their original

biodiversity.
