"Re: Second Public Inquiry regarding Environmental and Social Impacts of Proposed Jakarta-Bandung High Speed Rail", 22 June 2017

"As referenced in our last letter (attached), we strongly urge China Development Bank to delay any loan disbursements until China Development Bank can publicly confirm and guarantee that all Indonesian laws and Chinese policy obligations, such as the Green Credit Guidelines, are met. Until then, we ask that China Development Bank please reconsider the project and freeze any financing until your client can publicly guarantee that no local communities were coerced or forcibly evicted."

"Again, we ask that China Development Bank please assess and disclose to the public how the project has complied with all Indonesian laws and Chinese policy obligations. According to our analysis included in our previous letter, the project fails to meet Indonesian environmental, spatial, land planning, and other laws. It also fails to comply with Chinese environmental and banking policies, such as the Green Credit Guidelines."
