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 chunk of forest
-
We are guarding this customary forest
-
So, you need to think about you and your great grandchildrenâs 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 chunk of our forest
-
So, after this, we will go right up to our forest and visit our land.
-
For now, the forest is a small chunk of land and we're trying to protect it. This forest has nearly vanished.
-
Please, let there be no more of corporations trying to build 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 â itâs 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 when they came.
-
They are the ones that came previously.
-
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 take apart this forest, my husband and I will never agree
-
because we think about our children and grandchildren.
