An environmental activist from the Sustainable Forest Advocacy Institute (Lembahtari), Sayed Zainal, walks beside piles of plastic waste from various global product brands that support deforestation, and logs carried by flash floods caused by Tropical Cyclone Senyar in the Leuser Ecosystem area at coordinates 4?16'26.26''N 97?48'47.74''E (UNESCO heritage site) on Sumatra Island, Indonesia, on December 29, 2025. Sayed Zainal says that this real condition is evidence of large companies that still fail to fulfill their promises to stop deforestation in their supply chains. This deforestation is generally triggered by the production of major commodities such as palm oil, beef, soy, wood, pulp & paper, coffee, and cocoa. Among the list of global brands and companies that are in the spotlight because they are considered to hurt forests are Mondelez, Nissin Foods, Procter & Gamble (P&G), Ferrero, Salim Group, Palm Oil and Pulp & Paper Sector, Sinar Mas Group (APP), RGE Group, and Wilmar International.
