...Herakles Farms is fully committed to the ideals of sustainability and...it remains our full intention to meet or exceed the standards of RSPO [Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil] as well as the IFC Performance Standards...Then the obvious question becomes “why did we withdraw”. It is simply because RSPO as an organization is still too young and is missing the key technical staff to carry out its mission to assist stakeholders in vetting projects suitable for oil palm cultivation...The [Oakland Institute & Greenpeace] report is certainly full of inaccuracies, false statements and incendiary commentary...We are not proceeding with any activities in an illegal manner...[The] references to the court cases are misleading...The report expresses shock at our right to arrest and detain. We do not have the right to arrest but we do have the right to detain. This is no different than the right of a security guard in [a store] to detain a shoplifter and to turn him over to authorities.
