dc.descriptionSummary of EEPSEA research report RR2007-02 "The impacts of coal mining on the economy and environment of South Kalimantan Province" by Luthfi Fatahen
dc.description.abstractThis paper summarizes a report on the environmental and economic effects of coal production in South Kalimantan province, Indonesia. It finds that the mining sector is a significant part of provincial economic output that disproportionately benefits the well-off, and has unacceptable environmental impacts. Strip mining is the most common method used in the industry. The paper reviews the effects that better policies and strategies of regulation could have on coal mining.en
