Monkeys in Muara Karang

Monkeys in Muara Karang

From KOMPAS

I am very concerned over conditions of the monkeys that live in Muara Karang forest, North Jakarta.

While it is true that development must be continued, we must not forget that animals are also creatures that God has created and thus they have the right to exist. The monkeys in Muara Karang should not be treated arbitrarily and driven away just to make room for human beings.

I hope that the government gives due consideration on the preservation of flora and fauna in order to maintain ecological balance.
