IN a period of six months, the Government of Aceh had given birth to two concepts of forest rescue, Moratorium Logging and Aceh Green. Uniquely to the two concepts are born in one of the world's best tourism area, Nusa Dua, Bali. When asked why the two concepts of Aceh's forests was born in Nusa Dua, Bali?, By chance alone, this region is often in dapuk to host a meeting of international scale, could be a climate and facilities in this region are more supportive than other regions. Surely, there is no historical background as well as the actual relationship between the forests of Aceh and the region of Nusa Dua. The concept first be declared with the Governor of Papua and West Papua on 26 April 2007 on climate change, this concept is the origin of the birth policy logging moratorium declared on June 6, 2007 in Aceh. The concept of birth coincides with the second world conference on climate change, namely the concept of Aceh Green. This concept is the declared joint two Governors from Papua and the Amazon, Brazil on December 12, 2007. Now, the forests of Aceh have received seals of two concepts of forest management "Moratorium Logging and Aceh Green". As Governor Irwandi in a meeting with the Joint Forum (Forbes) for the DPR / DPD RI from Aceh on 7 March, that 80 percent of forests in the Aceh region of Sumatra. Moratorium on logging that was launched in June 2007, has succeeded in encouraging forest rescue, however governor acknowledged that the actions of timber theft still occurs in the forests of Aceh. Actions are still rampant illegal logging in Aceh's forests must not be separated from the role of the financiers who finance this action, and on the other side of the economic condition of poor people who still make a case of illegal logging is difficult to be eradicated out of the forest region of Aceh. Now, the barons, timber barons and panic began to grip. They shouted, due to the moratorium, timber prices soaring, people difficult to get wood to build houses, even to the coffin. Timber barons deliberately spread the provocation like that for people reject moratorium on logging policy, it is disclosed Irwandi on A working meeting with the Commission and Chairman of DPRA, 6 March in Hall DPRA. In fact, according to the governor, the policy of a moratorium be done to restructure the functions of forests that should be a balance of nature and climate factors. But due to over-exploited by the employers' concessions and concession owners, continued Irwandi, then the balance function to be weak to cause floods, landslides, disturbance of wildlife such as elephants and tigers. Not yet finished and separated from the problem of illegal logging and forest destruction. The Government of Aceh has been confronted with new problems to be solved. The high rates of unemployment in Aceh. Unemployment explosion this would be a ghost for Aceh, post the termination of the rehabilitation and reconstruction program, April 2009. Meanwhile, about one million of Aceh's forests have been damaged by a variety of illegal activities and concession owners in the past. Two things the Government is in charge of Aceh with the concept of Green Aceh (Aceh Green). Green Aceh program, assume the character is not much different from the moratorium on logging, even close relations with one program moratorium, which is re-forestrasi (replant) forests of Aceh. The difference lies in the direct involvement of workers who are still unemployed. Meanwhile, a moratorium on logging reforestation program involving multiple parties from all walks of life. In his press conference at the Pavilion of Indonesia, Nusa Dua, Bali climate change conference at the arena, Irwandi explain, as many as 50 heads of households (families) who live near the forest will be granted rights of ownership of land by the Government of Aceh. Each household is projected to have an area of 4 hectares of a total of 250 thousand hectares of forest land to be reformed (land reform) in 2008, this year. The plan of this Green Aceh program will be funded from the Regional Budget (APBD). Governor of Aceh Green also hopes the program can be funded through carbon trading mechanisms or through the mechanism of clean development mechanism (CDM). According to his estimation, about 20 million U.S. dollars will get in Aceh's forests through the CDM mechanism, so the opportunity to create jobs as well as greening the degraded forests grew, he continued. Forest Plantation Technically, the concept of Aceh Green will be directed to rehabilitate one million hectares of degraded forest. The land will be developed into the region people's plantation forests (HTR), the results of the HTR region that will be sold to meet the needs of industrial timber estates (HTI). "The move is part of the empowerment concept of Aceh's forests through the Green Vision," said the governor. During this time, the people who live on the outskirts of the forest, the easiest solution to look for sustenance is cut down the forests, he added, therefore, with the HTR program, we expect that the image can be changed ie timber plant will make money. Related Forest Plantation development plan, the Government itself according to the governor of Aceh, have communicated to the Minister of Forestry, MS Kaban, during a visit to Aceh, some time ago. Meanwhile, Director General of Forestry Production Development Department has prepared 5.4 million hectares of forest land for Forest Plantation, and 3.6 million hectares of forest to industrial timber estates. This program is part of a national program meruapakan Forest Plantation Development in order to revitalize the forestry sector, aiming to enhance the contribution of forestry to economic growth and reduce unemployment and poverty alleviation. The pattern of forest development of this new plant will use a pattern of Forest Plantation 60 percent and 40 percent of Forest Plantation. A total of 360 thousand head of the Family (KK) will be involved in this program, ranging from 2007 to 2010, each household will get 15 hectares of land. According to Director General of Forestry Production Development, the target of planting 5.4 million hectares for Forest Plantation will be realized until late 2016, with a target budget of 1.44 trillion rupiah. The program itself will refer to the policy of Government Regulation (PP). 6 Year 2007 on Forest Plantation. Minimize Impact Meanwhile, Sofyan, the National Executive Coordinator of Indonesian Forum for Environment (WALHI) Desk Aceh-Nias, providing a positive appreciation of the idea of Governor Irwandi Yusuf, but according to him, concepts such as plasma core has to be scrutinized and modified by local governments. According to him, the plasma core concepts are applied in some areas in Indonesia, has failed meningktkan welfare of the community. In fact, assets owned by the investor community spout. Plantations in the area, used the private sector. From experience, generally a company engaged in the plasma core concepts do not have enough capital. Instead, the company that uses community-owned assets, as collateral to start a plantation activities, he said. He mentioned, the effects, people should bear the risk if the company loses. How to prevent that risk, the government can use a local company to implement the concept of core plasma. Even if the private sector, governments can charge them for meyetorkan capital into the local treasury, so that they can not just leave if the company suffered a loss, he said. He admitted, plasma core ideas that proclaimed Irwandi has been modified, by requiring private parties to finance estate by 50 percent. However, the results of modification, it is still possible there any risks harming the public. A number of failures that occur towards the plasma core systems in different regions, can be used as background create a new strategy that can minimize the risk, he added. The concept of people's plantation forests are not only used its wood products. However, nontimber products (not wood) in forest areas, such as honey bees and various other products produced by forests, can also be used. The Government should conduct a study to map the different potential in every area of people's plantation forests, said Sofyan. To be successful the concept of Aceh Green Vision which produces agricultural commodities, he said the Government of Aceh to create a step-by-step strategy that supports perogram it. Steps referred to can be done with the involvement of the banking sector at the local level. This sector should implement policies that favor the community a lot, mapping market linkages, maintaining the stability of product prices, and ensure the availability of the means of production. Sofyan added that the concept of Green Vision, which proclaimed Aceh government, must also be socialized and dipahamai entire community. The goal, so the public is given the space, to express his opinion before the entire program implemented. This can be done by way of discussions involving all parties involved in it, so that this concept is really based on the same vision, Sofyan added
