Nithin Coca నితిన్<p>I was curious to look into how NGOs in <a href="https://social.coop/tags/SoutheastAsia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoutheastAsia</span></a>, <a href="https://social.coop/tags/China" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>China</span></a>, and the West, were dealing with this challenge. Quite fittingly, a report came out as I was working on this piece, connected an infamous Indonesia conglomerate, <a href="https://social.coop/tags/RoyalGoldenEagle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RoyalGoldenEagle</span></a>, with a new <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Kalimantan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kalimantan</span></a> factory that would send nearly all its of <a href="https://social.coop/tags/paperpulp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>paperpulp</span></a> to one country: <a href="https://social.coop/tags/China" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>China</span></a>.</p>
Nithin Coca నితిన్<p>But one thing has changed dramatically – the main buyers of high-risk tropical commodities. Then, it was primarily brands in the <a href="https://social.coop/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a>, <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Europe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Europe</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Japan</span></a> that played a key role.</p><p>Today, it’s <a href="https://social.coop/tags/China" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>China</span></a>.

Nithin Coca నితిన్<p>I initially went to <a href="https://social.coop/tags/Indonesia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Indonesia</span></a>, back in 2011, because of the country’s troubling history with deforestation, driven primarily, historically, by demand for tropical commodities including <a href="https://social.coop/tags/palmoil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>palmoil</span></a> <a href="https://social.coop/tags/paperpulp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>paperpulp</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://social.coop/tags/rubber" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rubber</span></a>.</p><p>In the past decade, as I’ve covered these issues for numerous outlet, much has changed. In some ways there has been real progress in increasing traceability and stemming deforestation, but at the same time, much of the supply chain remains opaque.</p>
