"The agreement will only benefit Oslo Norway and other European countries. Reduction of carbon emissions through forest moratorium only made the suffering people of Indonesia. While foreigners continue preoccupied with the industry, "said Drajad.
Added Drajad, 66 years of independence of Indonesia is a momentum that should not be wasted government. Moreover, foreign interests in Indonesia within the next 50 years will become apparent.
Indonesia oil palm and rubber plantations are a mainstay in the world. If the empowerment of land that currently can be multiplied, the opportunity to master the world oil market and the rubber in the future is very open to Indonesia.
"This is clearly a threat to developed countries. They worry that Indonesia will be a developed country. The government should see this as a very good opportunity, "added the vice chairman of Partai Amanat Nasional (PAN) is.
Meanwhile, Chairman of Asosiasi Pengusaha Indonesia (Apindo) Sofyan Wanandi said that Indonesia is often used as 'cash cow' by the developed countries. One example is the signing of Oslo, Norway, last year.
In the Oslo agreement, Indonesia is required to reduce carbon emissions by the lure of grants totaling $ 1 billion per year. As a result, the year the Oslo agreement, unused land can not be utilized that can actually absorb millions of workers.

"Oslo Agreement had been troubled from the start. Norway's own carbon emissions it produces a much larger than Indonesia.

That is happening now, "
