Given the high rate of de-struction of rainforests on Borneo, literacy and conservation efforts of medicinal plants that are part of the forest ecosystem are important.

In particular, development of the Biodiversity Information System which can be used as an exploring media for exchange information society on Borneo's biodiversity.
