-
In the future, all of our forest
will vanish
-
for you and your grandchildren.
-
Because the company kept taking it until
all the forest was gone.
-
That's why we are still protecting this
small piece of forest.
-
We are guarding this customary forest.
-
So, you need to think about you and your
great grandchildren's future.
-
Where will you find your food?
-
Where will you grow your food?
-
Where can you find wood to
build your house?
-
We, as your parents, are thinking about
your future.
-
That's why we are maintaining the last
piece of our forest.
-
So, after this, we will go right up to our
forest and visit our land.
-
Now, the forest is a small piece of
land and we're trying to protect it.
-
This forest has nearly vanished.
-
Please, let there be no more
corporations trying to make fields here.
-
Now there are these palm oil plantations.
-
The very first time they started a
plantation, we blockaded this area.
-
That's when the palm plantation was
still up there. It's hard to see from here
-
And all of this area was still intact,
still a big forest.
-
We erected a blockade.
-
Then the Henrison Persada company
destroyed it piece by piece.
-
They are the same company that came
before.
-
I warned the government,
I already gave them a warning.
-
We've already told the company that this
is enough now!
-
Even if it's a government program.
-
If the government has a program
to cut down this forest
-
my husband and I will never agree
-
because we think about our children and
our grandchildren.
