BANDA ACEH - Minister of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) Siti Nurbaya stated that Mount Leuser in Aceh is the only forest area in Indonesia that has four great animals living at once.
"Leuser, the only one which has four of the world's greatest animals at once, namely tigers, elephants, orangutans, and rhinos," said Siti Nurbaya in Banda Aceh, Wednesday, September 14.
This statement was made by Siti Nurbaya during a friendly meeting with cadres and administrators of the Aceh NasDem party.
In fact, said Siti, the beauty of Mount Leuser has made world stars such as Leonardo Wilhelm Dicaprio come to Aceh because the Leuser ecosystem is indeed very good.
Siti said the Leuser ecosystem area has an area of more than 2.5 million hectares, but not all of them are included in the protected area.
"Included in the national park are around 800,000 hectares (included as protected areas)," she said.
The Minister of Environment and Forestry said that the Gunung Leuser area was indeed very sensitive, even though the area was good and the flow could be part of the people's welfare. And that was later called the Leuser Ecosystem Area (KEL) Aceh.

Situ said the Leuser ecosystem area is watershed management that must be managed properly. Be it from the cliff area, the ridge to the flat.
"Aceh is great because its forest is still 70 percent, its forest cover is still good, and it is a stable forest in Indonesia, so when it comes to carbon, Aceh is the champion," she said.
