Abstract This study aimed to determine changes in litter biomass and the effect of changes in litter biomass on carbon stock changes in Permanent Sample Plots of primary and secondary forest in the Protection Forest of Soya Village, Ambon City, for three years of measurement. This study used a sampling method with harvesting/collection and using laboratory analysis, where the working procedure used the SNI: 7724 guidelines. The data taken includes the water content of litter, total wet weight, dry weight of the sample, and wet weight of the sample to calculate the range of biomass or organic matter and carbon content of litter organic matter. The results showed that the average value of water content in both primary and secondary forests decreased. The depletion degree was higher in the first year than the second and third year. The biomass content of litter in primary forests decreased from year to year for three years of measurement. It causes a decrease in the carbon content in the primary forest. In contrast, the biomass content in secondary forests increased from year to year and increased carbon content from year to year for three years of measurement.

Some territories in Merauke become heavily polluted from the wastes. One of the pollution cases is from six palm oil companies which has polluted some forests in Merauke, Papua. The companies responsible for the decreasing environmental condition are operating in Malind Bian such as PT Dongin Prabhawa ( Korindo Group), PT Bio Inti Agrindo (Korindo group), PT Central Cipta Murdaya (CCM), PT Agriprima Cipta Persada, PT Hardaya Sawit Papua and PT Berkat Cipta Abadi. The method is of this study is normative legal approach. The result of this study reveals that the government are advised to include the society and the locals to make a decision and to find a good solution for the environment which has been sustaining their life.

In the Cordillera region, Luzon, Philippines, indigenous communities, suchas the Ifugao and Bontoc tribes have maintained community-owned forests,called the tayan and pinugo respectively, since time immemorial. These tribesrecognize that forests are the main source of their basic of needs such as food,shelter and clothing. Conversely, the local communities recognize the importanceof forests in providing irrigation for their payew or rice fields. To protect theirforests, there are unwritten customary laws and policies that serve as guide forthe local community. In Benguet, one of the six provinces of the CordilleraRegion, unfortunately, no similar community-owned forests were established bythe local communities hence between the 1910 to 1940s, it is the governmentwho declared 76 communal forests in Benguet province. However, since thedeclaration to date, these communal forests are not relatively protected becauseof the lack of implementing policies. Currently, one of the identified strategiesto preserve the remaining forests in Benguet is to involve the community in the validation and re-delineation communal forests through a series of communityconsultation, field work and management planning. This paper demonstrates howthe involvement of the local communities or stakeholders is being considered inthe management of the communal forests.Keywords: Forestry, Bontoc tribe, communal forest, Ifugao, pinugo, tayan, BenguetProvince, Philippines

Forest management policies in Pakistan have been generally following conventional approaches without considering the role of local community’s participation. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan, Joint Forest Management (JFM) was introduced in 1996 with the active involvement of local communities for both sustainable forest management and community livelihoods. This study analyzes the impacts of JFM on rural livelihoods in Pakistan using a sample from 10 villages of Siran and Kalam Forest Divisions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Data were collected through interview schedule and focus group discussions from the local community members & forest department personnel. Results of the study revealed that the JFM played a key role in livelihoods improvement and forest development. Also, JFM improved relationship between local communities and forest department. This study recommends for introduction of policies that help in building trust and friendly relationships between forest department and local communities for sustainable forest management.

The fast growing bamboo causes problems in Kitakyushu as it is able to invade other plant areas. Bamboo forests that are growing too fast are often left without being properly cared for by landowners. This worsens the condition of the balance of the ecosystem in this bamboo forest area. In this study, an investigation was carried out on efforts to manage bamboo forests in Kitakyushu City, especially those involving the community. Efforts to manage bamboo forests are carried out by the government and the community in Kitakyushu City. The volunteers come from students and the general public. Activities carried out include providing experience for community members to cut bamboo trees, make musical instruments from bamboo and perform performances using these musical instruments. This activity instills awareness in the participants to better maintain the balance of the existence of this bamboo forest. The potential for the use of bamboo is actually very wide open, both as a musical instrument, souvenirs, cooking ingredients, construction materials, activated carbon and others. However, efforts to increase the benefit value of these products still have to be made to compete with other raw materials.
