REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, CIBINONG - Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) and National Science Foundation (NSF) held a discussion on biodiversity in Indonesia and develop the proper technology for research, Monday.

Chairman of LIPI, Lukman Hakim, said Indonesian biodiversity in forest, lake, mountains and small islands was threatened and needed significant attention. "Our biodiversity is threatened by gold, tin and coal minings, hotel building, and even plantation," Hakim said on Monday.

While biodiversity reservation in unique ecosystem is challenging, LIPI and NSF joint research is expected to unveil genetic richness in Indonesia. This workshop LIPI-NSF on Biodiversity is a chain of events held by Joint Commission Meeting (JCM) with sub theme biodiversity and marine biology between Indonesia and US in 2012. 

The Head of Biotechnology Research at LIPI, Witjaksono, said the cooperation would build real framework for the future joint research and help increasing the quality of research and capacity of the researchers.

وَمَا تَفَرَّقُوْٓا اِلَّا مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جَاۤءَهُمُ الْعِلْمُ بَغْيًاۢ بَيْنَهُمْۗ وَلَوْلَا كَلِمَةٌ سَبَقَتْ مِنْ رَّبِّكَ اِلٰٓى اَجَلٍ مُّسَمًّى لَّقُضِيَ بَيْنَهُمْۗ وَاِنَّ الَّذِيْنَ اُوْرِثُوا الْكِتٰبَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِهِمْ لَفِيْ شَكٍّ مِّنْهُ مُرِيْبٍ
Dan mereka (Ahli Kitab) tidak berpecah belah kecuali setelah datang kepada mereka ilmu (kebenaran yang disampaikan oleh para nabi) karena kedengkian antara sesama mereka. Jika tidaklah karena suatu ketetapan yang telah ada dahulunya dari Tuhanmu (untuk menangguhkan azab) sampai batas waktu yang ditentukan, pastilah hukuman bagi mereka telah dilaksanakan. Dan sesungguhnya orang-orang yang mewarisi Kitab (Taurat dan Injil) setelah mereka (pada zaman Muhammad), benar-benar berada dalam keraguan yang mendalam tentang Kitab (Al-Qur'an) itu.

(QS. Asy-Syura ayat 14)
