The Indonesian government has warned that it will deport Oscar awardee Leonardo DiCaprio after the actor and filmmaker made critical statements about the country’s palm oil industry during his recent visit to the country, reported The Guardian. The actor, who's also a keen environmentalist, took a trip to the jungles of Indonesia recently to garner support for the creation of a nature sanctuary on the island of Sumatra. DiCaprio took to social media and shared many photos of himself amid the dense jungle of the country.
But the government of Indonesia isn't happy with all the stuff that DiCaprio has been posting, especially this line, "But the expansion of Palm Oil plantations is fragmenting the forest and cutting off key elephant migratory corridors, making it more difficult for elephant families to find adequate sources of food and water." And this is what the government said in reply, reported The Guardian. "If there are statements that discredit the government and the interests of Indonesia, he could be deported. If he is in Indonesia for other purposes, by engaging in activities that disrupt public order and harm the interests of Indonesia, immigration authorities are ready to deport him," said immigration director-general Ronny Sompie.
