It has come to my attention that several documents by PT AJA Sertifikasi Indonesia (AJA) bear my “signature”, including a PEFC Public Audit Report – SFM and a PEFC Package Submission Checklist. I herewith clarify that these “signatures” have been added without my consent, while various reports were altered without my approval. Consequently, I do not support the findings in any document by AJA that bears my “signature” (easily recognized as a separate image when right-clicking on it; see image right).

Suspect documents include, but are not limited to, the following:

1. PEFC Audit Report Stage 1 for Riau Andalan Pulp and Paper – Meranti West (2015)
2. PEFC Audit Report Stage 1 for Sumatera Riang Lestari – Garingging (2015)
3. PEFC Audit Report Stage 1 for Sumatera Riang Lestari – Rupat (2015)
4. PEFC Audit Report Stage 2 for Riau Andalan Pulp and Paper – Meranti West (2015)
5. PEFC Package Submission Checklist for PT Arara Abadi (2015)
6. PEFC Package Submission Checklist for Riau Andalan Pulp and Paper (2015)
7. PEFC Package Submission Checklist for Satria Perkasa Agung – Serapung (2015)
