I will work hard\nwith Mr Deputy Minister and the support of all parties, of course, to\nensure that forest fire mitigation is carried out very seriously,\u201d said\nJumhur at the Ministry of Environment and Forestry building in Kuningan,\nSouth Jakarta, on Wednesday (29\/4\/2026).<\/p>\n<p>Jumhur stated that he has received reports on the obstacles to forest\nfire mitigation in Indonesia. He assured that mitigation efforts will be\nprepared thoroughly in the future.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cActually, I have received reports, there are many ways to mitigate\nthis. But they don\u2019t work because of one thing or another, so insyaallah\nin the current situation, I will lead,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHopefully, with this long El Ni\u00f1o, with good hard work, we can\nsuppress it to the lowest possible level,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Jumhur will also ensure that mitigation efforts are maximised for\nparties holding concessions, including forests owned by indigenous\ncommunities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is where our intervention must be more serious, because they\nmay not be educated about it. Therefore, there will be considerations,\nokay, there will be funding support to help create ditches, water\npooling, for those with open access,\u201d he stated.<\/p>",
