Biofuel - Where to go?

Biofuel is government's choice. Government has set the target to increase the use of biofuel (bio gasoline or bio diesel) up to more or less 5% of total energy mix. Quite a target. But what happen now? Local use of biofuel is still limited to Biodiesel (I heard its only 5% biodiesel 95% normal diesel fuel). Bio gasoline use is also still limited. So far only in Malang Pertamina (state oil company) sell bio gasoline (10% ethanol). The road ahead for biofuel is not clear.

Environmentalist are opposing the use of CPO to produce biofuel. Their argument is orang utan and rain forest biodiversity. Their argument is true, but true for whose purpose?

I do not yet see it here in Indonesia, but in Cambodia big energy companies from Europe are investing a lot of money in biofuel plantation. In Europe, CPO from Indonesia are banned (or at least have difficulties in penetrating European market) due to environmental reasons. I believe this is big move has a hidden agenda. Recently, a big businessman from US (owner of Johnson Hygine Products Company) visited North Sumatera to see whethere there is oportunity to open new palm oil plantation. For me this is a clear sign that businessmen from US or maybe later from Europe (or are they already here by now?) are interested in such big business. They now ban Indonesian products (by Indonesian businessmen), but later if they (foreign) already own the plantation and monopolize the business they will open the market. Exploiting Indonesia as usual.

Government should aware of this or maybe key people are already in the payrol? who knows?
