An old photo from a previous job.  The people of the Taka Bone Rate (aka Taka Bonerate) atoll, Indonesia, come out in force to greet the Ministers of Environment & Forestry, and their entourage.
For further insight on the environmental and socio-economic issues related to the coral reefs of Taka Bone Rate, you should read:
