*SIRIM QAS Defends Samling's Sustainable Timber Certificate Despite Local Opposition*
Audit body SIRIM QAS International said that there was no reason to cancel the sustainable timber certificate given to Samling, despite the dispute in the FMU Gerenai area - but it was handled well. Sirim said this in response to BMF and The Borneo Project's call for international timber buyers to boycott Sarawak timber, especially those produced by the Samling Group company. According to Boyce, for decades Samling has been logging in our area and causing various problems. Now is the time for all the agencies to go to the field and see the damage done by Samling. I have met the majority of residents in the FMU Gerenai area. They have never seen a SIRIM representative come to their area to clearly see their problems. As an audit and certification body, SIRIM should hold open meetings and encourage residents to submit opinions and views. Samling entered our forest, took logs and after profiting hundreds of millions. They left us to inherit forests and broken roads. Is this sustainable? Boyce Ngau question. Samling withdrew from a RM5 million defamation suit in court a few months ago. This proves that Samling is not ready to face the people of Gerenai - brings evidence that Samling does not implement a transparent approach to get the consent of the people of the Gerenai area.
