The barge carrying the timbers. In Borneo, a lot of people involve in the timber industry are getting rich & they build big houses for themselves in the city/town. If they are those wildlife in the jungle, do they feel happy to see their home to be destroyed? the river became polluted? the temperature is increasing? Do they feel shame to destroy our beautiful rainforests of Borneo?
