Re establishment with mangrove and other suitable species can offer significant benefits, but needs to form part of a realistic national forest plan that is developed within an integrated framework for management of coastal areas.

Forest fiscal reform provides opportunities to increase revenues generated from forest resources.

Slow lorises range across tropical and subtropical regions and are found in primary and secondary rainforests, as well as bamboo groves and mangrove forests.
