The Life with Coal Power Plants in Cirebon, Indonesia (PHOTO)
Cirebon is a fishing village in Indonesia, whose residents are engaged in fishing, salt farming, and agriculture. Since Cirebon coal-fired power plant backed by financing from Korean public financial institutes was built, their lives have changed. As pollutants from the coal power plant contaminated water and killed living creatures, fishers lost their jobs. Pollutants in the air also caused diseases in the lungs and hearts.
Despite all those damages, however, Korean public financial institutes still invested or have plans to invest in Cirebon coal plant unit II and III.
