The goverment is unlikely to meets its deadline for establishing a special climate change comissiom because of cautiousness and tough negotiations.
The comission was originally scheduled to be set up by the end of April. Their responsbility will include monitoring the national action plan for fighting climate
change and teaching people to adapt to frequent changes in the weather. They also manage all funds earmarked for dealing with climate change, including
billion of dollars in grants expected from wealthy countries to help Indonesia reduce emissions.
The action plan was launched by President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono while he was attending the climate change conference in Bali last December.
It is consist of steps to reduce green house gas emissions from the energy, agriculture, forestry, and fishery sectors. The comission would be a follow up to
the Bali conference.
There was a study showing parts of the capital, including Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, will become submerged due to rising sea levels caused
by climate change. Indonesia should have be able to export rice if there were no extreme weather changes this year.
