*Conflict Over Forest Conservation: Penan Communities Reject Logging Licenses*
Nick confirmed the news reported by BMF that logging by Borneoland Timber Resources Sdn. Bhd. started a few weeks ago. Before this, there were several meetings and negotiations between the logging companies and 18 Penan communities upstream of Baram. The majority of Penan communities did not agree to the logging in their forest area. Residents of Long Lamam, Long Ajeng, and Long Benaleh sent letters of objection to Borneoland Timber. However, only the family of Village Chief Ba Data Bila, specifically Village Chief Sedin Laeng, agreed to the logging for their own reasons, allowing Borneoland Timber to start the operation.
The Penan people in this area (Selaan) strongly object to the logging because they depend entirely on the forest for their livelihood. Additionally, this area is part of the UBFA development plan - Ulu Baram Forest Area - a forest conservation area developed through the ideas and wishes of the community. Therefore, Nick appealed to the state government to cancel the logging license in the UBFA area and respect the voice of the majority of the Penan people. He mentioned that they would give a little more time for the workers to resolve this logging issue before setting up a blockade.
