So does most of this furniture stay in China after it is produced, or does it meet demand in the US and Europe? About what proportions are we talking about here?

The Vessel MV KIARA of the French shipping company CMA CGM is coming in Vohemar this week end. The President Andry R. has sent his guards (FIS) to secure the transport of illegal rosewood from antalaha to vohemar. Their plan is to discharge the containers full of rosewood outside the port and then once the night has come to take the containers inside the port while every body is sleeping so that no citizens can see that the rosewood has been shipped...

Rosewood hater

Already as mayor of Antananarivo Mr.Rajoelina made many travels to China .
Madagascar like all African country deserves peace not putschist and lord-warier to make their pocket full of money and starve the population .

It is time for France to stop providing military assistance to the Rajoelina regime.

It is time for France and the US to apply and voice support for the African Union sanctions against Rajoelina and his supporters.

Time to condemn the widespread human rights violations that are keeping the people repressed.

Time to stand up for democracy.

Enough is enough.

Where is the EIA video now?

I would like to bring to your attention that although Global Witness and EIA undertook the investigation into the illegal harvesting and trade of Madagascar's precious wood as a joint effort, the investigations in China were undertaken exclusively and independently by EIA. As such Global Witness cannot take any responsibility for the original footage, edited content, presentation or publication of the video that was produced during and as a result of these investigations in China.
Please ensure any statement of ownership or publication of this video footage is not attributed to Global Witness.
