"A total of 78 thousand hectares will be revitalized. We set that this program will be completed in 2028. The total budget is IDR 78 trillion," he said, as reported by the Antaranews page on Friday (12/27/2024).

Among the areas that will be the focus of revitalization is the West Java section, which covers 20 thousand hectares of the total 78 thousand hectares. This area belongs to the forestry department, which is expected to facilitate the revitalization process and increase effectiveness.

The revitalization process will involve detailed mapping of the area.

This mapping is important to determine the next steps, such as whether the area can be adjusted for certain commodities such as salt or milkfish.
