Andrian Lasimbang, environmental activist
*Sarawak Government Hypocritical in Carbon trading*
The local press reported that Sarawak has approved 2 carbon trading licenses which were each given to PETROS (Petroleum Sarawak Berhad) and to Samling through SARACARBON Sdn.Bhd. These two companies will collect and store natural carbon (CCUS). It was also reported that Sarawak will get around RM315 million to RM1.039 billion a year from carbon trading. Will the Aboriginal people get a share of the profits?. The answer is no. In fact, according to Andrian, the movements and activities of Indigenous people in the gazetted land area for carbon trading will be controlled and subject to strict regulations. They can also be driven out, in other words the Area that has been gazetted will be strictly controlled and all human activities prohibited. However, the press also reported that the Sarawak government did not plan to end the issuance of logging licenses to fully switch to carbon trading. This was confirmed by Sarawak Forest Director Datu Hamden Muhammad- in a media release today. For Andrian- this is where we see the hypocrisy of the Sarawak government. Every effort is made to enrich capitalists like Samling. At the same time Aboriginal land was confiscated and they did not benefit from carbon trading at all.
