Kota Kinabalu: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor wants the Sabah Forestry Department to increase its collection to reach the set target of RM165 million, this year.
“I hope that all JPS employees work hard to ensure this effort is achieved,” he said, in a statement here today. He added that carbon trading through the implementation of reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation Plus , green energy supply and the commercialisation of research results can also increase the collection.He said even though last year the department only collected RM1.64 million in revenue from forest recreation or two per cent of the total collection of forest revenue, the impact was very large on the conservation efforts carried out in the state.
He said that the move is a due diligence system, which is in line with the requirements of the European Union Deforestation Regulation , introduced by the European Union in 2022.
