Investment goes green
Indonesia plans a $1 billion green investment fund this year to drive infrastructure developments that aid growth and help cut greenhouse gas emissions, a finance ministry official said yesterday.
Indonesia has promised to slash its emissions by at least 26 percent from business as usual levels by 2020, but recently re-elected President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has also vowed to boost economic growth to 7 percent or more by 2014.
