MIRI: US Ambassador to Malaysia Christopher LaFleur will make recommendations to his Government on the right assistance for the “Heart of Borneo” project, a joint initiative of the Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei governments to conserve about 220,000 square km of biodiversity-rich equatorial rainforest in Borneo island.
LaFleur said the US Government regarded the project as a “very important effort” not only for the three neighbouring countries but also for the world as a whole.
“Borneo island is still very rich in biodiversity and once the (Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei) governments officially launch the project, we will do our part for the project,” he said on his arrival here as part of a five-day fact-finding mission to Sarawak recently.
