Illegal Coffee Farming in Indonesia

This is great for my novel! (Not so great for endangered species)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indonesian_coffee

"In January 2007, the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) reported that land was illegally cleared for coffee farming in Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park on the island of Sumatra. The protected park is home to endangered tigers, elephants and rhinos, and WWF predicts that these species will be extinct in a decade should the clearing and farming continue. WWF states that the illegal coffee is sold to Western companies such as Nestlé and Kraft Foods."
