Indonesia is extremely corrupt, and as he points out the president has very little power.
It's well worth watching the film "the act of killing", though also incredibly depressing.
The best we could hope for is international pressure from other countries, especially it's neighbours.
Most important is that consumers try and avoid products that use palm oil unless ethically sourced (sorry, but no Nutella, Ferrero Rosche etc).
