The degradation and deforestation of mangrove forests in Indonesia have threaten the sustainability of mangrove forest. There is an initiative which has been developed by Department of Silviculture IPB and Indonesia Government to restore mangrove forest around Pantai Indah Kapuk and main highway to Soekarno-Hatta Airport, Jakarta, Indonesia. The program has successfully aided to grow up the seedling of local mangrove species from Indonesia. It could be proven as you attend Indonesia in which more than 9 millions of mangrove species have been grown up in Pantai Indah Kapuk and main highway to Soekarno-Hatta Airport, Jakarta, Indonesia.
