The government and security personnel in Riau province will soon issue a joint declaration to call on people and companies to stop slash and burn practices that lead to forest fires. The declaration — to be signed by the Riau governor, the chief of the Riau Provincial Police and the chief of the Riau Prosecutor’s Office — will be made public in the near future, said Riau Governor Rusli Zainal. The declaration will also inform the public of sanctions for those who use slash and burn practices to clear land that has led to haze in the area, said Rusli.
