This picture taken on February 8, 2023 shows coconut farmer Hastoma (front R) and other farmers, whose lands were illegally taken by Gema Kreasi Perdana (GKP), looking at a nickel mining site operated by the company on Wawonii island, southeast Sulawesi. The dig site is part of a huge rush to Indonesia, the world's largest nickel producer, by domestic and foreign enterprises to mine the critical component used in electric vehicle batteries.
