The Ambassador of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to Indonesia, H.E. Abdulla Salem AlDhaheri, held an official meeting with the Indonesian Minister of Forestry, Raja Juli Antoni, in Jakarta. This meeting aimed to discuss strategic cooperation plans in the field of environment.
The main focus of the discussion was the protection and breeding program for Komodo dragons. As an endemic species found only in Indonesia, the Komodo dragon has garnered international attention due to its endangered status and its vital role in the ecosystem.

This initiative is part of the Indonesian government's efforts to strengthen international collaboration in safeguarding national biodiversity. In addition to animal protection, this cooperation is also expected to serve as a bridge for the exchange of knowledge regarding forest area management and nature conservation.
Both parties are committed to following up on this discussion with a more detailed action plan. The Indonesian government welcomes the support from the United Arab Emirates as a positive step in preserving the Komodo dragon for future generations.
