%X The impacts of the toxic smoke from Indonesian peatland and forest fires have generated considerable concern from multiple sectors. The associated costs include global impacts on climate and ecosystem services; regional, national and local effects on health; and direct and indirect economic losses.

In January 2016, he inaugurated the Peatland Restoration Agency with the specific  remit of restoring two million hectares of drained peatlands in the next five years.
