On December 29, 2025, a conservationist, Sayed Zainal, surveys several areas significantly impacted by flash floods resulting from Tropical Cyclone Senyar in the Lubuk Sidup region, located within the Sekerak Subdistrict of Aceh Tamiang District, Aceh, Indonesia. The cyclone results in the loss of at least 1,167 lives in Indonesia and over 1,400 across three Asia-Pacific countries, with estimated economic damages amounting to approximately USD 19.8 billion. The disruption of vital access in Sekerak is a grim indicator of a broader pattern of ecological disasters that increasingly threaten the fragile Leuser Ecosystem, as emphasized by Sayed Zainal, Director of the Sustainable Forest Advocacy Institute.
