Forest Action on Illegally Felled Trees in Paia Port
Greenpeace activists paint 'Forest Destruction',' Climate Crime' and 'Moratorium Now' on barges of illegally felled trees. The logs wait on Paia Port waterways - prevented from being loaded onto the 'Harbour Gemini' ship, occupied by Greenpeace activists, in the rainforests of the 'Turama extension' logging concession, Gulf Province. These forests are being felled by Turama Forest Industries - a group company of Malaysian logging giant Rimbunan Hijau. In 1995, the Papua New Guinea government granted 1.7 million hectares as a logging ‘extension’ to Turama Forest Industries – the extension was almost 10 times bigger than the original concession. The timber permit for this new concession, called Turama Extension is valid for 35 years (until 2030).
