  • Samboja Lestari („ewiges Samboja“) ist ein Aufforstungsprojekt der Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation (BOS) in der Nähe von Balikpapan in Ostkalimantan. Dort konnte seit 2001 ein Gebiet von ca. 1.800 Hektar erworben werden, auf welchem sich in der Vergangenheit tropischer Regenwald befunden hatte. Nach dessen Rodung bestand das Gebiet hauptsächlich aus Grasland. BOS hat dieses Gebiet zwischen 2001 und 2011 mit verschiedenen Baumarten weitgehend aufgeforstet. (de)

  • Samboja Lestari is a Bornean orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) rescue and rehabilitation centre, tropical rainforest restoration project, sun bear sanctuary, and eco-lodge located in the town of Samboja in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, owned and operated by the Borneo Orangutan Survival (BOS) Foundation. According to its founder, Willie Smits, Samboja Lestari uses the principles of People, Planet, Profit, attempting to provide incomes for local people using conservation. It is located about 38 kilometres from East Kalimantan's biggest city, Balikpapan. The project covers about 1,800 hectares (6.9 sq mi) of previously deforested land. In 2001, the BOS Foundation began purchasing land near Samboja that, like much of the deforested land in Borneo, was covered in alang-alang grass (Imperata cylindrica). The name Samboja Lestari roughly translates as the 'Samboja Forever'. Reforestation and orangutan rehabilitation are at the core of this project, which is considered controversial because it is more expensive to replant a forest instead of just protecting remaining forest. According to the BOS Foundation, by 2006 over 740 different tree species had been planted; by 2009 there were 1200 species of trees, 137 species of birds and six species of non-human primates. (en)
