For tenure issues, it should be handled by agrarian ministry.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, he said that the merger would only eliminate environment ministry\u2019s authority against forestry ministry\u2019s policy. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would blur the line for environment ministry\u2019s jurisdiction, especially based on the 2009 Environment Protection and Management Law,\u201d he said.  \u201cThe ministry would get mixed up with forestry ministry\u2019s authority to issue permit. Meanwhile, the law regulates institution issuing permits. There\u2019s no institution would want to execute its own mistakes.\u201d<br \/>\nHe also argued that the merger would limit on the knowledge that environment was not all about forestry issues but it connected with other sectors. <\/p>\n<p>Henri Subagiyo, executive director of Indonesian Center for Environmental Law (ICEL), said if merged then it should be ensured that it will be lead by a minister who is a pro-environment and not exploitation. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt [the merger] can be a positive [move] if the minister and its internal structure are more pro-environment, for instance, there will be more director generals for environment protection, conservation, or law enforcement, or it can also include forest protection,\u201d said Subagiyo. \u201cBut, if the structure consists of director general for land use changes, for example, then the merger would be a bad idea because it\u2019s exploitative.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The internal structures, he said, must be approved by the minister and the president. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the end, the minister needs to be someone with a strong leadership because he\/she would be under two laws, environment and forestry law, which have their own contradictions,\u201d he said adding that Jokowi need to explain to public on his decision to merge both ministries. <\/p>\n<p>In addition, he said that minister of environment should have good track record in the effort of protecting the environment, not a political party member, and has no ties with any business people especially from extractive industries to ensure independency. <strong>Fidelis E.
