PAPH 2026 Welcomed by Forestry Industry Players

The General Chair of the Indonesian Wood Panel Association (APKINDO), Bambang Soepijanto, assesses that PAPH 2026 has the potential to open up sources of raw material supply from new permits.

Meanwhile, the General Chair of the Indonesian Forest Entrepreneurs Association (APHI), Soewarso, stated that he would revise the production forest road map for the 2019–2045 period to be in line with the multi-business forestry model.

PAPH is dynamic and will be updated at least once a year. Input from local governments, business actors and stakeholders will be used in the preparation of PAPH 2027 which is scheduled to start December 2026.

The government emphasizes that determining the area in the PAPH does not mean that a business permit is automatically granted. Each application must still meet environmental, administrative and technical requirements, as well as obtain recommendations from the local government.
