Key Messages
• Not that China timber import is all bad!
• the real problem lies in a few countries
where governance is too weak!
• Only reliance on export market pressure is
not enough!
• The power of China’s domestic market is
not to be neglected
• The influence of China on countries where
it sources timber need to be better used
