The permanent moratorium on primary forest clearance and peatland destruction has been one of the main policies to limit deforestation since its introduction in 2011. The moratorium was renewed every two years and became permanent through President Jo Widodo's Presidential Instruction No. 5 of 2019. The moratorium covers 41% of Indonesia’s forests and peatlands – the remaining 59% is excluded as secondary forest (47%) and land within concession (12%) (Union of Concerned Scientists, Greenpeace, World Resources Institute, 2019).
