1) Indonesia has experienced threats to its forest resources sustainability from illegal logging, which degrades forests and impacts industries. 2) To combat illegal logging, Indonesia developed the Timber Legality Assurance System (SVLK) after earlier law enforcement approaches proved insufficient. 3) The SVLK aims to demonstrate Indonesia's commitment to eliminating illegal logging and illegal timber trade, while improving governance and meeting demands for legal timber. It requires legality certification of state and private forests and throughout the supply chain.
