Amid soaring global demand for palm oil, Indonesia is predicted to remain dominant as the world’s largest palm-oil producer within the next decade, on the back of its main rival Malaysia’s land scarcity and aging plantations, says a report by Rabobank.
Your comments:
The big issue here is not so much about being the biggest producer of palm oil, but the opportunity to gloat in overtaking Malaysia’s lead.

How many of the forests have you destroyed to do this and how much natural wildlife is being killed?
