The Burning Island of Borneo

Malaysia and Indonesia are the top two producers of Crude Palm Oil  in the world -- and most of the plantations are on the Island of Borneo.

Today on Current Affairs, BFM explores how the dense rainforests of Borneo Island are rapidly being cleared for the establishment of palm oil plantations, and how this is affecting the climate of the world.

This is a report by Emir Zainul.
