Indonesian Minister Highlights Ecological Redemption, Ethics, and Environmental Law at ENSIA 2026

Indonesian Minister Jumhur, speaking at the Environment and Sustainability International Conference (ENSIA 2026) on September 10, 2026, put forth 'Ecological Redemption,' 'Ethical Compliance,' and 'Environmental Law' as crucial pillars for a sustainable future. The minister emphasized that these concepts are not mere ideals but should be implemented as practical policies. Specifically, 'Ecological Redemption' signifies not only recovery from past environmental damage but also proactive efforts to maintain a healthy planetary environment for future generations. Furthermore, 'Ethical Compliance' points to the importance of a moral and ethical framework for corporations and individuals to act responsibly regarding environmental issues. He also highlighted that the strict enforcement and strengthening of 'Environmental Law' would serve as the legal foundation for achieving these goals. The minister's remarks at ENSIA 2026 indicate a heightened awareness of the environmental challenges faced by Indonesia and its commitment to seeking concrete solutions. Indonesia, despite its vast territory and rich biodiversity, confronts severe environmental issues such as deforestation, pollution, and the impacts of climate change. The proposals made at this conference are seen as demonstrating the nation's resolve to address these challenges and work towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
