Despite the subdued CPO price for the majority of 2019, our Earnings before Interest, Taxation, Depreciation, and Amortisation (“EBITDA”) has improved by 85% to RM50.1 million as compared to 2018 of RM27.1 million. Concurrently, our Loss Before Taxation has shrank by 63% to RM68.8 million as compared to 2018 of RM184.1 million, in spite of notching a 16% drop in revenue.

  • Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia - Sarawak, Malaysia “Head to Head”
    Borderlands and Tourism Development in Kalimantan Island: Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia - Sarawak, Malaysia “Head to Head” Syaiful Muazir Department of Architecture, Tanjungpura University, Pontianak, Indonesia [email protected] Horng-Chang Hsieh Department of Urban Planning, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan [email protected] As part of the regions that share lands and boundaries, Sarawak-Malaysia and Kalimantan Barat- Indonesia have respective characteristics in the borderlands treatment. This paper aims to explore and compare the border areas between two nations, ranging from the borderlands profiles, (tourism) development and planning, and their opportunities. Besides, this paper also wants to highlight tourism development as one of the strategies. This paper uses documentary research to seek “text and context” by narratively describing and compiling the documents. From the discussion, it can be seen that both regions have different characteristics of conditions and problems. For tourism development, different approaches are also “colored” with timing, momentum, and priorities; as influenced and supported by the national plans. Tourism in the borderlands is the impetus in which each regions has already been aware of this potential because of the traction of informal flow, accessibility, supply, and demand. Furthermore, we argue that if tourism has exist at the first place, in the future, by its backward linkages, it will encourage more physical and economic development and cooperation between nations. Keywords: borderland, tourism development, Sarawak, Kalimantan Barat 1. INTRODUCTION diplomatic relationship.

What forces, other than border control measures by the state, are at work to demarcate the line in the mental mapping of borderland peoples? To answer these questions, this chapter looks at the historical pro- cess of commodification in the borderland of western Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo as a case in point. The borderland under study has the following three characteristics. First, it has been centrally located in a web of commodity chains linking resource-rich tropics with international markets. Second, the border is inconspicuous: “altitude” and “distance” from any political center are not the crucial factors that make this borderland a distinctively nonstate space (McKinnon and Michaud 2000; Michaud 2008, 2010; Scott 2009). Third, the borderland is a space where the organizational power of the state is nominal, if not nonexistent. In the borderlands, commodification represents a process whereby value is added to products as they move across a territorial boundary. While the state attempts to generate revenue from this process, people do so illicitly. This chapter sees the genesis of the state space and boundary making within the context of long-term processes of frontier commodification, recognizing that non- timber forest produce, timber, rubber, and pepper have functioned as critical linkages connecting local society with regional and global market systems.

  • Cross-Border Timber Trade in Indonesia: Critical Or Overstated Problem? Forest Governance Lessons from Kalimantan
    526 International Forestry Review Vol.9(1), 2007 Cross-border timber trade in Indonesia: critical or overstated problem? Forest governance lessons from Kalimantan K. OBIDZINSKI1, A. ANDRIANTO2 and C. WIJAYA3 1 Research Fellow, Centre for International Forestry Research, Indonesia, P.O. Box 6596, JKPWB, Jakarta 10065, Indonesia 2 Research Assistant, Centre for International Forestry Research, Indonesia, P.O. Box 6596, JKPWB, Jakarta 10065, Indonesia 3 Forest Crime as a Constraint on Development By Mark Baird, Country Director, Indonesia Email: [email protected] SUMMARY Illegal logging has been at the centre of policy debates about the current state and future prospects of Indonesia’s forestry sector. One of the prevailing views is that clandestine cross-border timber trade is responsible for illegal logging in the country. This paper shows the core of the illegal logging problem lies not in timber smuggling in remote locations but in licensed forestry operations that engage in gross over- harvesting and violate shipping regulations. These actions, in turn, are necessitated by a vast supply-demand disparity in Indonesia’s wood- working sector. The current timber trade system in Indonesia that stresses administrative and document compliance is insuffi cient because it is easy to manipulate and its enforcement is lax. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a more stringent timber legality standard that would be simpler to enforce and easier to evaluate. However, this will only work if a serious effort is made to restructure (downsize) forest industries and develop sustainable industrial timber plantations.

    Man In India, 97 (24-II) : 55-67 © Serials Publications LITTLE BROTHER-BIG BROTHER RELATIONSHIP THROUGH MALAYSIA-INDONESIA SOSEK-MALINDO INITIATIVES: A CASE STUDY OF ENTIKONG-TEBEDU BORDER *Abdul Rahim, A., *Mohammad, S. A., *Mohd Kamarulnizam, A. and *Abubakar, E.H. Cross-border trade between two neighbouring countries reflects socioeconomic ties between border communities. As such, this paper examines the socio-economic development of communities at the border of Entikong (Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia) and Tebedu (Sarawak, Malaysia). Development undertaken by the respective governments, through the Sosek-Malindo platform, reflects to a certain extent, the concept of a Little Brother-Big Brother relationship, in which each intends to provide assistance through development projects that benefit both communities through employment creation and income generation. This can improve their socio-economic level that has been trapped in poverty and underdevelopment. Keywords: Cross border development; Tebedu, Entikong; Sosek Malindo; little brother-big brother I. INTRODUCTION Bilateral relations between two countries can take a win-win situation or a zero sum game in their effort to resolve conflicts. Malaysia-Indonesia bilateral relations often lead to win-win solutions because each believes the cost of conflict would be high due to economic interdependence on each other. In the context of this archipelagic relation, it may reflect the little brother-big brother (LB-BB) relationship since both countries derived from the same family lineage and share the same religion, Malay and Islam respectively. Indonesia is considered as the big brother from the Malaysian perspective since Indonesia achieved independence earlier, has extensive experience in overcoming colonialism, has a widely multicultural heritage, and it is a large country, in terms of geography and population (Kunaseelan, 1996).
