Hutan “Mana ada bird of paradise menari-nari di dahan sawit Ada juga alat berat baru memilah-milah kayu hasil tebangan  berupa penghancuran hutan dalam konsesi PT Korindo Group di Papua dan Maluku Utara Laporan investigasi gabungan beberapa organisasi yang rilis Kamis (1/9/16) di Jakarta ini betapa perusahaan-perusahaan sawit dan kayu yang bernaung dalam bendera PT Korindo Group seperti di Merauke dan Boven Digoel dan Maluku Utara di Gane Kebakaran (bakar) lahan dalam konsesi sawit Korindo juga terjadi dalam beberapa tahun ini Konflik-konflik lahan juga muncul karena hak-hak warga terabaikan Adapun organisasi dan lembaga yang tergabung dalam membuat laporan  ini antara lain dan Federasi Eropa untuk Transportasi dan Lingkungan Juga Federasi Korea untuk Gerakan Lingkungan “Kami sudah laporkan ini ke Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup dan Kehutanan Sudah kirimkan laporan ke Dirjen Penegakan Hukum dan Menteri Siti Nurbaya,” kata Bustar Maitar Laporan dimulai sejak 2013 hingga Juni 2016 ini menelusuri fakta-fakta Korindo ini lewat citra satelit video dan foto-foto dari lapangan langsung atau lewat drone (pesawat tanpa awak) terlihat bagaimana kawasan yang dulu berhutan alat-alat berat bekerja membersihkan lahan  berupa jalur berisi tumpukan kayu-kayu kecil biasa stacking itu siapkan buat dibakar,” kata Bustar  untuk memperlihatkan apa yang dilakukan Korindo di Papua dan Malut kaya keragaman hayati dan banyak belum terungkap “Mereka akan dikorbankan dengan pembukaan hutan besar-besaran di Papua Kalau dilanjutkan terus (pembabatan hutan) kita akan kehilangan harta yang tersisa di Indonesia,”katanya deforestasi terus berlanjut karena permintaan pasar global sawit terus meningkat jadi peluang bagi banyak perusahaan buat buka kebun terutama sawit.” Dalam laporan berjudul Burning Paradise: Palm Oil in The Land of the Tree Kangaroo ini menyebutkan Korindo mulai agresif membabat hutan untuk kebun sawit Konsesi Korindo tersebar di beberapa daerah masih ada 75.000 hektar hutan berharga yang belum dibuka di konsesi sawit Korindo Satu contoh seperti disebutkan dalam laporan masih belum dibuka dengan luas pada Mei sekitar 25.000 hektar hutan TSE mengumumkan tiga bulan moratorium alias tak membuka lahan baru mereka berjanji memperbaiki diri seperti nol deforestasi tim menemukan banyak sekali titik api di dalam konsesi Korindo dari citra satelit di konsesi PT Dongin Prabhawa  sudah membuka kebun dan menanami sawit seluas 24.000 hektar Dari sebaran titik api lewat citra satelit itu terlihat murah buat bersihkan lahan dengan membakar,” ucap Bustar Kalau ada orang bilang ini masyarakat yang bakar perusahaan menuduh warga sengaja membakar lahan pertanian mereka temukan pola hampir sama di Kalimantan dan Sumatera Jalur penumpukan kayu (stacking) mulai dibuat Gak mungkin masyarakat bikin ladang di sini,” katanya memperlihatkan Korindo diduga kuat melanggar hukum Indonesia soal larangan membuka lahan dengan membakar kayu-kayu besar seperti merbau disisihkan karena mempunyai nilai ekonomis berbisnis di hutan tropis itu untung berlipat ganda tak hanya bergerak di bisnis perkebunan sawit Perusahaan ini juga punya usaha kayu lapis dan kayu triplek aksi perusahaan buka lahan dengan bakar berjalan mulus karena pantauan atau pengawasan pemerintah sangat minim hanya tinggal lahan kosong bercampur sisa-sisa tebangan kayu Pimpinan Sekretariat Keadilan dan Perdamaian Keuskupan Agung Merauke mengatakan konflik tak hanya terjadi antar warga dan perusahaan “Mandopo ini merasa keberatan karena lahan mereka dilepaskan oleh marga lain apa batas benar atau tidak agar tak konflik,” katanya memang ada izin pemerintah tetapi proses-proses di lapangan seharusnya dengan persetujuan warga tapi proses untuk sampai dapat izin yang banyak kecurangan Free Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) adalah prinsip yang menegaskan hak masyarakat adat menentukan bentuk-bentuk kegiatan apa yang diinginkan pada wilayah mereka Sejak mulai Merauke Integrated Food and Energy Estate (MIFEE) untuk proyek pangan ternyata banyak masuk investasi sawit aparat militer sangat berkepentingan,” katanya yang menjadi eksekutor lapangan agar warga mau menyerahkan atau memberi izin  atas lahan mereka sebagai manusia biasa takut dengan militer stigma kalau melawan disebut Organisasi Papua Merdeka (OPM) Ini stigma gampang buat bunuh orang Papua adalah OPM Padahal masyarakat sebenarnya tak tahu soal ini.” konsern perlindungan hak-hak warga “Manusia tak tinggal di langit Manusia itu di atas tanah dan hidup mereka masih menyatu dengan hutan pemerintah dan pengusaha berjualan kata-kata ‘mensejahterakan masyarakat.’ “Benarkah masyarakat sejahtera?” Kondisi menyedihkan malah banyak terlihat di kampung-kampung dekat konsesi tak punya hutan buat menggantungkan hidup dari berburu sampai memanfaatkan sumber lain Mereka kehilangan hutan karena jadi konsesi Korindo “Soal jualan sejahtera kala investor masuk sudah terbukti tak ada terjadi dengan melihat contoh di Kalimantan dan Sumatera harus mengalami hal serupa juga?” tanya Bustar Dalam foto-foto dan video pun tampak kehidupan warga menyedihkan seperti jalanpun jauh dari sebutan jalan alias sangat buruk lalu dapat kerja di perusahaan lalu sejahtera Bukan soal ada kerja di perusahaan baru sejahtera,” katanya kala investor masuk mengambil lahan-lahan adat dan membabat hutan penguasaan lahan jatuh ke pemodal seperti Korindo grup perusahaan ini tak kurang punya kuasa kelola sekitar 900 ribuan hektar terdiri dari kebun-kebun sawit dan HPH Pada 2014, Yayasan Pusaka, bersama SKP-KAM juga mengeluarkan Atlas Sawit Papua kuasa perkebunan sawit yang menyebar di Papua dan Papua Barat hutan-hutan sudah banyak dikuasai perusahaan dengan tak bisa memenuhi FPIC kala membuka kebun Sejak awal proyek tak ada informasi yang baik kepada warga warga berdemonstrasi menuntut penghentian operasi GWM dengan mengkriminalisasi 14 warga—yang berakhir di pengadilan dengan vonis bebas murni dari hakim Walhi Malut menggugat Korindo atas beberapa permasalahan seperti warga makin kesulitan air bersih sampai mempertanyakan izin hak guna usaha (HGU) Tuntutan lain soal penanaman sawit di lereng curam mereka mendesak pemerintah bertindak tegas pemerintah menegaskan apabila perusahaan terbukti membakar lahan maka izin akan dicabut dan lahan diambil alih negara Segera lakukan kajian mendalam untuk restorasi,” kata Bustar Kami tak ingin apa yang terjadi di Kalimantan dan Sumatera terjadi di Papua.” alias tak ada lagi pembukaan hutan dan lahan buat sawit “Kami minta hal sama seperti diminta Presiden juga lakukan FPIC dengan kembali mulai proses bertanya ke masyarakat “Apakah mereka mengerti dan setuju dengan perusahaan ada tak hanya pegang kepala-kepala suku atau marga para pembeli sawit Korindo berhenti sampai perusahaan benar-benar menjalankan komitmen menjaga hutan terisa dan menghargai hak-hak masyarakat yang sudah punya komitetmen nol deforestasi hasil ini demi memastikan minyak sawit Indonesia benar-benar kredibel di pasar hingga memberikan kebanggaan bagi negeri ini itu yang lakukan kampanye hitam sebenarnya perusahaan-perusahaan membakar lahan dan langgar hak-hak masyarakat Franky meminta perusahaan mengembangkan mekanisme penyelesaian konflik dan meninggalkan cara-cara kekerasan Amo menuntut perusahaan harus menghargai hak asasi manusia (HAM) bisnis-bisnis yang tak sesuai HAM mundur dari Papua Perusahaan kerap berdalih telah memberikan tanggung jawab sosial (corporate social responsibility/CSR) kepada warga kala menjawab pelanggaran-pelanggaran hak-hak warga yang datang saat rilis laporan itu kala diminta tanggapan mengatakan temuan laporan ini merupakan informasi berharga bagi Korindo isi laporan itu mesti ada konfirmasi lebih lanjut ada hal-hal yang tak terhubung langsung dan angka-angka provokatif ada perbedaan terminologi antara perusahaan dan pembuat laporan kita punya pemahaman yang sama gak soal deforestasi.” “APL (area penggunaan lain-red) bukan hutan Tentu kita bisa diskusikan,” katanya mencoba berdalih temuan yang menyatakan Korindo melakukan deforestasi “Dalam tiga bulan berikan kesempatan untuk perbaiki diri.” Luwi juga mengakui terjadi kebakaran pada konsesi sawit Korindo Dia coba membela perusahaan dan berusaha membelokkan soal taman nasional yang terbakar Harusnya kan kita sama-sama tuntut pemerintah.”   Facebook   Twitter

various flavors such as durian Copyright © 2025 Unair News | Powered by Astra WordPress Theme defunct air carrier Hageland Aviation paid out $2.5 million in a lawsuit filed against them This closes a chapter in the now six-year-old story of pilot Zach Babat who was killed in a 2016 midair collision involving two small commercial airplanes Babat was piloting a Piper Super Cub for Bethel-based Renfro’s Alaskan Adventures He and a Renfro’s guide were flying from Bethel to a hunting camp That’s when a Cessna Caravan took off from Russian Mission and essentially ascended into Babat’s plane Both planes tumbled to the ground and all seven people on board filed the lawsuit against Hageland Aviation the motivation was to show that the other party was at fault And to make them push to improve their safety,” said Pride The lawsuit against Hageland Aviation alleges that the company was completely at fault Attorneys for Pride hired aviation experts who concluded that the pilot of the Cessna Caravan should have had a clear view of Babat’s plane while taking off Pride said that her husband was known throughout the state for his high safety standards as a pilot of nearly two decades “My husband flew for Hageland [Aviation] for a little while And he left because of safety concerns,” said Pride but Pride said that she sees the high dollar amount as an admission of the carrier’s wrongdoing because we know Zach was not at fault in this And so I feel like I did my job for Zach and his good name and for Renfro’s [Alaskan Adventures],” said Pride But Pride thinks that airline safety in Alaska still has a long way to go An investigation by Unalaska public radio station KUCB and ProPublica in 2021 revealed that Alaska is the most dangerous state for small airline travel KUCB reported that almost half of the nation’s small plane crashes are in Alaska And there have been five midair collisions in the five years following Babat’s plane crash The report attributed the crashes largely to inexperienced pilots lack of support while flying in remote areas Pride said that the lawsuit was agonizing, and lasted as many as two extra years due to the pandemic. She is glad this chapter of her life is behind her. She’s looking forward to continuing her work with Babat’s estate. He was a prolific wildland painter who took much of his inspiration from scenes he witnessed in Alaska she has set up a scholarship in his name for art students in Babat’s two beloved homes of Alaska and Montana Nine Salve Regina students from the undergraduate psychology program and graduate behavior analysis program recently attended the Massachusetts Professionals in Behavior Analysis (BABAT) annual conference taking home two awards for their posters and presentations BABAT attracts presentations from prominent researchers from around the world,” said Dr assistant professor and graduate program director for behavior analysis “Students attending the conference get a chance to meet and learn from leaders in the field of behavior analysis and students who present at BABAT get an opportunity to share and discuss their research with these leaders.” Although Morris has attended the conference previously this was the first BABAT experience for his students accounting for 35% of the student poster presentations ’22 (M) and graduate student Jacob Oliveira won first place in the poster competition and Tatiana Pullar ’22 (M) won the only honorable mention of the event “Several conference attendees approached me during the poster session to rave about the quality of the students’ research and the professionalism of their presentations,” Morris said “I was delighted by how well all of the students presented and felt very honored to be involved with each of their presentations The students deserve to feel gratified in their collective accomplishment – not only did they represent Salve exceptionally well but they also shared important research that can help improve the treatment for highly vulnerable populations such as individuals with severe developmental disabilities.” The topics that the students presented included strategies related to teaching sight words to children with developmental disabilities assessing and treating problematic behavior data collection integrity and state licensing laws for behavior analysis “The Effects of Using Compound Stimuli to Train Sight Words,” investigated effective stimulus presentation methods for teaching students to identify sight words “The basis of the project is adhere caution when teaching sight words using compound stimuli and to assess it before wasting time teaching a skill with faulty stimulus control,” Oliveira said “Participating in BABAT was a fantastic professional development opportunity to network and get feedback from other professionals in the field as I begin my journey as a professional in the field of behavior analysis,” Gray said “It is always an honor to attend these conferences and represent Salve and the behavior analysis program.” This experience was made possible

has been ACP Stanley’s deputy for the past two years took over from the latter at a ceremony which was witnessed by State Commissioner of Police ACP Stanley said that he wanted the police to remain committed to crime prevention work “I believe my successor will be able to uphold the responsibility and trust given by the top leaders of the force including achieving its the vision and mission,” he said ACP Stanley is retiring after serving the force for almost 39 years He took the helm of Sibu OCPD on January 6 “I take this opportunity to congratulate the efforts of all staff in Sibu OCPD in reducing the crime index rate for the year 2021 by 41.02 per cent to 313 cases from 40 cases a year earlier,” he said ACP Stanley hoped that the Sibu police force will continue to increase crime prevention efforts either through community policing or conventional policing to ensure that the government’s aim of reducing crimes can be achieved “The success in reducing the crime rate rests on the shoulders of all PDRM staff members and it requires a high level of cooperation and commitment,” he emphasised he also wanted them to carry out community policing activities so that the community could feel their presence especially in residential areas and hotspots “This effort is necessary to increase the community’s trust of the police to prevent crimes such as housebreaking as well as motorcycle and car theft,” he said ACP Stanley called on members of the force to give their full support to Supt Collin similar to what they had shown him he said he would be back with his family in Saratok Datuk Aidi in thanking ACP Stanley for his service said that the officer had achieved much during his years of service “Tuan Stanley has performed his duty with full dedication and committment as seen by the improved security in the town,” he said JOIN NOW Turkey was adjudged to a compensation fine of €20,000 (TL 42,000) by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in the murder case of Önder Babat. The ECHR decreed that the investigation launched into the events around the unsolved murder of university student Babat was insufficient. 25-year-old Babat was shot in his head with a 9 mm bullet after he had left the office of the Revolutionary Movement magazine in Beyoğlu (Istanbul) together with three friends. It has not been found out who the attackers were, where they came from and why they shot Babat. In the decision taken on 12 January, the ECHR turned down the claim of three Babat family members that Önder Babat became subject to an extrajudicial execution by the state security forces. However, the court accepted the claim that the public officials did not carry out an effective investigation related to the event. The court ruled for € 15,000 to be paid to Aziz and Azime Babat and another € 5,000 to Marifet Akgün. The ECHR concluded that article 2 of the European Convention of Human Rights on the right to life was violated by not conducting an effective investigation. (EÖ/VK) ShareSaveTechHow Indians Defied Gravity and Achieved Success in Silicon ValleyBySingularity University Affiliate If you visited Silicon Valley in the ‘50s and ‘60s the only Indians you would meet were a few low-level engineers who came to the U.S Indians were stereotyped as beggars and snake charmers and finding them in leadership positions in the technology industry was unimaginable They also started helping each other and formed their own entrepreneurial networks UC-Berkeley School of Information dean AnnaLee Saxenian discovered that Indian-born entrepreneurs had founded 7% of all Silicon Valley startups between 1980 and 1998 By forming their own networks and mentoring each other they had changed the perception of Indian technologists They showed America that they could indeed be CEOs Nearly eight years after Saxenian published her findings, Professor Vivek Wadhwa partnered with her and Professor F Daniel Siciliano of Stanford Law School to update and expand the research Twenty five percent of the nation’s startups and 52% of those in Silicon Valley were founded by immigrants Indian immigrants were the leading company founding group They founded 13.4% of Silicon Valley’s startups and 6.5% of those nationwide because Indian immigrants comprised much less than 1% of U.S I worked with Professor Wadhwa at Stanford University to once again update this research. Kauffman Foundation just published our report titled Then and Now: America’s New Immigrant Entrepreneurs We learned that because of flaws in the U.S Skilled immigrants are trapped in limbo and they cannot get the visas necessary to start companies they are becoming more and more frustrated and returning to their home countries to start companies and bring innovation there instead of the U.S The decline in the proportion of immigrant founded startups reflects this trend the proportion has dropped from 25.3% to 24.3% and the decline is even greater in Silicon Valley—from 52.4% to 43.9% This is very bad news for America—the country needs startups now more than ever to revive its economy But the biggest surprise—or should I say shock—is that Indians are dominating immigrant entrepreneurship Indians founded 8% of all technology and engineering startups and yet still comprise less than 1% of the U.S Our research has shown that Indians now outnumber the next 7 immigrant groups combined and start 33.2% of all immigrant-founded startups in the U.S   The proportion of all immigrant founded companies has fallen in Silicon Valley but Indians have resisted this downward trend the proportion of all Silicon Valley companies founded by Indians has slightly increased from 13.4% to 14% since 2007 When we reviewed the initial survey results The Indian numbers could not have increased so dramatically We took an additional sample of 160 Silicon Valley companies to retest our findings—but the results stayed the same Indians are achieving extraordinary success in Silicon Valley We found that Indians start more companies than any other immigrant group in California (26%) especially since Indians only represent between 0.7% and 3.4% of the populations of these states Indians also lead all immigrant groups in the number of companies founded in the following industries: biosciences (35%) innovation/manufacturing-related services (29%) It’s remarkable that Indians have achieved such high levels of success in spite of U.S Skilled immigrants of all nationalities are experiencing visa difficulties and hardships that hamper their efforts to start new businesses Imagine what all of these immigrants could do if America provided the visas necessary to start companies and share the American Dream Stephen Nolan's personal trainer 'The Terrible Turk' reveals how the DJ is obsessed with food Stephen Nolan''s personal trainer the Terrible Turk has lifted the lid on his biggest challenge yet — helping the BBC motormouth in his public battle with the bulge Ekrem Babat is the only person who's been able to tame the formidable presenter famous for relentlessly grilling the people in power Receive today's headlines directly to your inbox every morning and evening Please check your inbox to verify your details
