’’Madagascar’s next president to take office, bears suspect eco record’’

Andry Rajoelina is set to be sworn in as president of Madagascar tomorrow, Jan. 19.
Many conservationists and civil society representatives were disappointed by his election.
Rajoelina had served as de facto president from 2009 to early 2014 after a coup d’état carried him to power.
His PAST ADMINISTRATION FACED CHARGES OF CORRUPTION, especially regarding natural resource management. Top officials, INCLUDING RAJOELINA HIMSELF, were RUMORED to be involved in the ILLEGAL ROSEWOOD TRADE, which FLOURISHED DURING HIS TIME IN OFFICE ...damaging Madagascar’s sensitive and highly biodiverse forests...
Though he often receives the blame, Rajoelina was not responsible for the SUDDEN UPTICK in trafficking. It was in fact RAVALOMANANA who STARTED IT when, in January 2009, he CONTRAVENED EXISTING LAW and granted PERMISSION for 13 influential businessmen — Madagascar’s TIMBER BARONS — to EXPORT ROSEWOOD for a three-month period...
Some evidence suggests Rajoelina may have been personally involved in the rosewood trade. When he left office in 2014, A LARGE PILE OF ROSEWOOD LOGS WAS FOUND AT THE PRESIDENTIAL PALACE
[cf. European Parliament resolution on Madagascar (2017/2963(RSP) ; https://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?type=MOTION&reference=B8-2017-0641&language=EN]

. Executives at a rosewood company in Guangzhou, China, said they had known him since he visited Guangzhou while mayor, according to a 2010 report by the Environmental Investigation Agency and Global Witness, advocacy groups based in Washington, D.C. and London that engage in UNDERCOVER REPORTING WORK . Rajoelina dismissed the report as a smear campaign and has repeatedly denied involvement in the rosewood trade. His communications team did not respond to questions for this article, including about his role in the rosewood trade...

Rajoelina has also received criticism for the company he keeps. The most notable example is his longtime adviser Maminiaina “Mamy” RAVATOMANGA ...Like Rajoelina, he is often linked to the illegal rosewood trade.
Rajoelina’s environmental record led a highly regarded scientist to speak out against him prior to last month’s election.
’’Madagascar elections : An environmental disaster in waiting’’ https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/madagascar-elections-environmental-disaster-waiting-181217095423818.html
[by William Laurance Distinguished Research Professor at James Cook University in Cairns, Australia.]...
Zo Randriamaro, coordinator of the Antananarivo-based Research and Support Center for Development Alternatives – Indian Ocean, a civil society group...worries that Rajoelina WILL NOT RESPECT the LAND RIGHTS OF LOCAL PEOPLE, WHO HAVE CONTESTED SEVERAL MINING PROJECTS across the country in recent years. “[W]e are likely to face even more issues resulting from the planned expansion of the extractive industries…and the DISPOSSESSION OF COMMUNITIES linked with the increasing PRIVATIZATION OF LAND and commons,” she said.
