“We hope that as an environmental and
conservation observer institution, especially the coastal region, implore very
much, so that the Morowali Regency Government and the Provincial Government,
especially the Forestry, Mining, and Environment Agency immediately conduct a
review and investigation into the Bungku Pesisir, before the damage gets
worse,” Kasmudin said.

“If there is no immediate action taken by the
regional government, then Sombori will be left with a memory, the Morowali
Regional Government should provide a solution and strict action, at least
reforestation of deforested forests which primarily replace damage to coral
reefs and mangroves with locations not far from those activities. so that
citizens’ anxiety is no longer a social conflict and also minimizes continuous
pollution, “he explained.
