Borrowing forests, reaping disaster: Regulations and practices for borrow-to-use permits for coal mining in East Kalimantan

This study by Prakarsa Borneo in East Kalimantan identified issues surrounding the borrow-use permit (izin pinjam pakai); a requirement when mining is to take place within the state forest zone, finding a lack of clear directives for issuing izin pinjam pakai permits, leading to permits being issued to support the interests of mining companies without community consent.
