The European Union and the United States have accused Indonesia and Malaysia, which account for 85 per cent of the world's production of CPO, of destroying forests to make space for oil palm plantations.
Indonesian Agriculture Minister Suswono said a delegation will visit the European Union in May to explain the Indonesian position and counter the allegation. "We (Indonesia and Malaysia) would see what would come afterward before deciding to stop exports," he said.
