巴布亚新几内亚以经济发展为幌子的非法砍伐

Global Witness reports that Maxland (PNG) Limited, a subsidiary of Joinland Group, has engaged in illegal logging on Manus Island, Papua New Guinea, under the guise of establishing a rubber plantation. The investigation finds that the company bypassed legal land-surveying processes, ignored provincial rejections of its permits, and failed to plant the promised rubber trees while exporting millions of dollars in hardwood to China and Japan. The report further links this activity to a network of international financial institutions in Malaysia, Singapore, Norway, and the US, and calls for stricter import regulations in China and better governance in Papua New Guinea.

• Maxland (PNG) Limited is accused of using a rubber plantation project as a front for illegal logging on Manus Island. While the company promised to plant 3 to 5 million rubber trees and build a road to alleviate poverty, Global Witness found that as of January 2020, less than 100 hectares had been cleared for planting, while approximately 1,000 hectares of high-value trees had been subject to selective logging.
• The logging project appears to have violated multiple Papua New Guinean laws. Specifically, the National Forest Board issued a clear-felling permit in December 2017 despite the Manus Provincial Forest Management Committee's rejection due to land disputes and overlaps with nature reserves. Additionally, the mandatory land-surveying process to verify ownership and obtain the free, prior, and informed consent of traditional landowners reportedly never occurred.
• The financial backing for Maxland's parent company, Joinland Group, involves a chain of international institutions. Between 2011 and 2016, Maybank, CIMB, and UOB provided over $3.7 million in financing to Joinland Capital SDN. BHD. These banks, in turn, have major shareholders including the Norwegian Government Pension Fund Global, BlackRock, Vanguard Group, J.P. Morgan Asset Management (Singapore) Limited, T. Rowe Price, Dimensional Fund Advisors, and CalPERS.
• Illegal timber from the Manus Island project was exported to China and Japan, with specific customers identified as Ningbo Hongguang Decorative Materials Co., Ltd. (China) and Sojitz Corporation (Japan). China is the largest buyer of Papua New Guinean timber, purchasing 86% of the country's exports in 2019.
