Malaysia's Orangutan Adoption Plan for Palm Oil Importers
Aug 19, 2024, 05:27 AM
Malaysia has announced a revised conservation scheme for orangutans, allowing companies that import palm oil to adopt the animals without exporting them. This initiative, described as 'orangutan diplomacy,' aims to support orangutans in their natural habitat rather than sending them overseas as gifts. The plan, announced by Malaysia's commodities minister, represents a shift in the country's approach to wildlife conservation. This comes as part of Malaysia's broader efforts to enhance environmental sustainability in the palm oil industry.
