The Dark Truth About Rubber | True Cost

- Опубликовано: 16 мар 2022
- The world relies on Southeast Asia for natural rubber. Seventy percent of the global supply is used to make tires for cars, trucks, and planes. But rubber plantations in Cambodia have displaced thousands of people and caused mass deforestation. Now, Indigenous communities who have been pushed off the land are fighting to get it back.

The Dark Truth About Rubber | True Cost
What a sad yet motivating story. From burying his son at 15 to saying he feels like crying sometimes because he has no grass for his cows. Im so glad channels like forbes giving attention to this guy!! He deserves it.
Pity it won't change a thing, awareness and action are two different things, not a single act of responsibility of the corporate fat cats that are the true cause of the exploitation.
Luckily we will still have a GoodYear so stay warm this winter and replace your Firestones.
How is it motivating? His suffering continues. He keeps being expolited by billionaires. It should make you angry. What can he do with attention. will attention stop poverty
sadly, this practice is very common in South East Asia. Rubber, Palm, Coal, Nickel, Gold, you name it. Government doesn't care whose land it is as long as they get obscene fees.

@@yotsugiononoki2842 no but its a step in the right direction. Just by these videos alone i find myself visiting these places in other countries dummy and ik others like me exist. My point is, awareness brings out the ppl who care

As a Vietnamese, my parents told me to never trust the Vietnamese big corporations’ moral cause it was most likely some sort of coruption happening. I felt ashamed that big corporation like HAGL would do thing like this. I wish that HAGL will fall one day and a better generation can help bring back morality in the Vietnam business.

Vietnamese-American here. I know very little about my parents' country other than war, corruption, and talented artists selling to international audiences via the internet. How sad that this Vietnamese company, along with many others and the Cambodian government, aided in stealing and taking advantage of others' land and sacred places, all for the sake of profit... It's very despair-inducing.
as a cambodian this not your fault this is their fault and hopefully the company will get paid for what they had done.

Same sort of thing can be seen in the more remote parts of southern Thailand. Right next to Khao Sak national park, for example, is pretty much entirely rubber and palm oil plantations. Which are standing in the place of what would have otherwise been a diverse jungle landscape. And the roads are full of trucks loaded to the top with palm. Seems to be the main livelihood for people in that area.
Large plantations can also ruin natural agriculture and soil the people should be compensated.
As a Thai person, the government policy of promoting rubber trees is incredibly stupid. It started more than a decade ago when the rubber price was high, so the gov encourages/subsidize people to grow rubber. The problem is that Thailand is not the only place catching on to this high price and other countries did the same (welcome to basic economics). So by the time the rubber tree is ready to be harvested, the rubber price plummeted due to the huge supply for china/Indonesia/etc.
So is happening in Guatemala 🙁
People should just use the oil they get from animal fats that they usually throw away.
I say that could really reduce how much other cooking oils we use.
@@Mryodamiles Very interesting! thanks for the input!
That’s absolutely soul crushing to hear that man’s graves of his grandchildren were devastated and destroyed 😔
What a horrible situation for the indigenous groups relying on the land with greed at the center of it all. Thank you for making this video and bringing more awareness to these challenges!
What's worse is these companies may resort to salting the land in spite before returning it to them.
Yeah.... sometimes you get a sense of certain products and companies. Some of which are hard to hold accountable or completely eliminate because of their prevalence. As a consumer, this is crucial information that needed to be seen.
Thank you
I'm Vietnamese, and I haven't known about this such awful and destructive activity of a Vietnam company. So sorry
Ita not ur country fault, its cambodia goverment fault
My guy u are one odd vietnamese
While I also find it difficult to hear about other Viets treating people in such a manner, just remember that this is how capitalism works. And capitalism doesn't care about race: it is driven by profits. If it wasn't a Vietnamese-based company doing this, it would be another company that the Cambodian government has sold away their citizen's lands to. On the one hand, you can't run build infrastructure if the only tax you collect are from farmers. You need more revenue to modernize the country. On the other hand, selling your country's natural resources to a foreign corporation doesn't ensure that the wealth is redistributed to your own country. It's a similar story with African countries: they can't seem to keep the the profits at home: they cater to outside companies who want to milk the resources.
I thought Hoang Anh Gia Lai only did real estate... but this shows that farmland is real estate too. Just like Bill Gates who bought a ton of farmland in the US. That's where the money is now.

Business Insider is getting a strong presence for investigative journalism on RUclips. Short, well-filmed, well-presented videos that matter. Well done!
Not quite
Excellent reporting as usual. Thorough criticism of “the company” and not a single criticism of Cambodia’s authoritarian government…
Exactly what I thought so also, why blame the companies but not their own government who sold its own people out
I mean I’d probably think of the Cambodian government as a lesser evil than said companies.
If you ever use a condom, rubber gloves, or bought a car. You are just as much at fault.
If they want to continue reporting then that topic is off limits.
Cambodia is what it is today thanks to tons of US bombs dropped and even US supporting of genocidal Polpot regime.
I am Vietnamese and I feel really sad to know this fact. I have heard about HAGL but never thought they would do such horrible things. I feel very sorry for the Cambodian people.😢
Sadly, this is exactly what's been happening in Laos. Khmu people in laos are the Indigenous people of Laos. But they lost their way of living with nature now everywhere in Laos is rubber plantations. Too many land grab and corruption in Laos is heart breaking.
This breaks my heart for these people and animals. What a horrible world we live in.

shame on Hagl, Thaco, Mazda, Peugot and BMW.
The honourable thing to do is to give back the land, especially sacred burial grounds.
It also appears that the traditional land holders may benefit from other farming methods, like crop stacking or companion planting to increase yields from small spaces.
e.g sweet potatoes grow well with bananas, papayas, tomatoes, lemon grass and citrus trees.
All with their roots intertwining.
You are so full of BS! So if a Indigenous group made a claim your home is on sacred ground you'd just leave? If you say yes then you're a liar, if you say no then shut it.
Man, this sucks. Things shouldn’t be like this.
These vids break even my stone hard heart
@zee why need a Job, when U can just farm and harvest your own food, as they did for generations. oh wait they cannot be independant cause they have no land!!
@zee Sure that is an argument to force Someone into capitalism, to just take their Land, to be an Underpaid employee under harsh conditions, Yeah right Dude.
@zee say that to the grandchildren's burial site who just got mawed over, dying the way you want to is better than to be forced, of course Statistics say that, but did you not see the Video? Did they get employed from that Vietnamese Company? No, will they get employed when they have to get into City? Probably a really low paid Job that gives you enough to survive but enough to live. You cannot decide how other have to live, it may be the statistically right thing to do but so highly unethical that i wanna puke.
@zee yet they got their acres of land taken away for $50. You can stop defending them now.
This stuff. No one talks about. I knew nothing of this before the video. Happy to learn about the injustice.
Those guys made the price of rubber super high (2$ per kg) when i started planting my trees.
So a lot of farmers invested and grown trees but they crushed the price to 0.5$ per kg when the rubber was flowing, farmers had to cut down their trees to sell wood just to make a living.
And today they are baiting us to plant those worthless trees again by rising the price a little
That's odd. I've never noticed the True Cost series before, but it's so thought provoking! Hope you keep making things like this because knowledge like this actually helps me to make informed decisions as a consumer and an investor 😍🤑
so you are a investor in HAGL, mentioned here?
I ain't gonna lie. I am 35, and just today did I learn that rubber actually grows on trees.
I thought it was synthesized from oil like plastic!
It's about 50/50
I always appreciate to video editor who did this. Amazing work, BTW which software was used?
Thank you Business Insider.
My dad went on mission there. That was one of the wealthiest regions of the world at one time. Such a short window of prosperity now sad to see that people will say they got what they deserve. True, it was at one time the best region for opium production and with that came the temperance crusades that fought long and hard against them. I think they got a bum deal looking at their circumstances now. They could benefit from some quarries there. Their “spirit mountain” could be enshrined elaborately to bring back the luster of generations past.
Rubber tree is grown in an interlaced pattern, so vegetables can be grown in between each line of trees.
In this particular case, what their governments did is not fair, but it's likely that government owned that land and now decided not to let residents farm there. The 3.2 acres thats left with him seems to be not maintained well, rice fields in my area looks different, even if he is using that land for growing vegetables now, it's too crowded with weeds and not maintained well. Not sure why no elected representative stood up for this issue.
I don't think the vegetables will have enough sunlight because the dense canopy.
@@sekar9901 my family owns rubber plantation, inter cropping in rubber plantation is common. There are plants and vegetables that grow well in rubber plantation and they do aid each other's growth.
Is the soil good enough to grow vegetables?
@@chillidog1239 i dont remember correctly, but rubber tree releases nitrate or something in to soil which is used by vegetables grown in this inter cropping. Rubber tree is grown in parallel lines with significant gap, this gap is used for inter cropping. And it's a profitable business, even if one doesn't own rubber plantation, the charge to be paid for tapping each tree is a great margin.
@@gokuljosh1186 Thanks for the reply, really helpful :)
Nice video
RUclips at its best... Placing a tire ad on this video 🤣👍🏻
We actually have the same problem overhere in vietnam, it's not that's severe as was shown here but defo noticable.
Near my house there's a mountain sacred to the local, with a temple on top of it. People make the climb to pray for good fortune everyday and tourist came to enjoy the scenery.
Now the path up is no longer covered by jungle trees, but rather rubber trees and pineapple trees because the soil was fitting for those to thrives.
People started to set up camp up there for work, built small docks to transport goods and other small infrastructure.
The temple is still there and people still made the climb, but it's much much less than what it used to be, the place just kinda lost it magic.
Thanks to capitalism

And it's not "just a way that business is done, that's just the surface lv of explantion so people don't think about it too much, it is a form of politics since it is used as a tool to control working class for years on ends, most western countries should know this by now, literally just look at any western company ever, how the only thing matter is the annual growth and bonuses, human rights and benefits be damn.

What are you talking about? Rubber is a commodity. There is no "this rubber" or "that rubber." It all gets put together like oil. You can't say "don't buy Russian oil" because then someone else buys it and you buy the oil that other person bought before. Stop thinking in terms of brands.

To think, that so many humans go crazy for things like scrambling, dirt bike racing & endurance, drag racing, Formula 1, etc - right down to those teens/twenty-somethings who drive round and round their home towns like loonies, doing burn-outs and doughnuts often for no reason than to show off to their easily impressed friends.
It would be far better for these companies to try and 'reclaim' land in suitable desert regions, build a water desalination system and pipe in irrigation, growing these trees in areas where nothing currently grows - providing jobs for locals.
We humans always take shortcuts however, and it's not ending well in so many ways.
I like Nascar hopefully I could go again to see one next year.
Most tires are made from synthetic rubber (petroleum-based). This is especially true in western countries. High-performance tires used in these races are for sure synthetic rubber. Very unlikely to see natural rubber.
Not taking shortcuts costs money. You wouldn't like the cost of living without the innumerable shortcuts we take.

As long as humans expand the more resources needed. Humans just dont live for basic needs but also materialistic. Many live the way they want at the expense of the another.

Its just another day of tragic story of rural people getting copped out by the government.. Thats why its important to have elected people that protects indigenous people's right..
Is it weird that i got an ad for toyota tires ?
Caution when entering the forest / bushes areas, there could be landmines though.
This video simultaneously showed how cold blooded the rubber corporations and the government are, but also how hopelessly behind the indigenous people are in terms of the efficiency of their production. The main issue here is the compensation is far too low and it's likely achieved through violence or threat of violence, in an ideal wonderland situation, they should have remained as rightful owners of the land but have the corporation lease the land from them. That way the land is off to better use, and the indigenous people are also better off.
This shows the lack of education of the people and the greed of the government. The people should have been told to get titles for their land from the government then lease to the companies and pay tax to the government. But the government essentially grabbed the land and leased it themselves.
They do not know what destruction they’re doing to the indigenous people. Story of Asia and Africa. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Stop buying car
It's not the government or corporation but it's man's insatiable greed.
no it's not govt or corporations, they are doing what people want. It's the insatiable need for more and more consumer goods.
they likely would not have given up all their land even to lease. that would make them unable to do all of the things they have always done with the remainder of the land, and would also still completely devastate the landscape

This is heart rending. The one thing I hate most is destroying the jungles for whatever reasons. Destroying the natural habitat is not good. It's cynical. If one would ask me, "What would you do if you had a huge land of your own?", I would say that, " I will grow forest in some of it and will create small lakes." Even if it is barren land, I will make it lush green. It takes years to do that but the love I have for nature will let me do it with compassion and dedication.

Hats off to insider for the brave report!
What’s the solution then? I don’t want to use a plastic eraser, but I also know natural rubber isn’t very sustainable either and now I’m learning of this too. Synthetic erasers just shed microplastics, but natural rubber is doing this. What do I do?? They are both so horrible. Does anyone know of an alternative?
It is hito hito no mi after all...
HOANG ANH GIA LAI! You must answer for the injustice that befell on these poor locals. You are denying opportunity of a human to grow and prosper as well.
Yeah then don't use any rubber lol
Any way to donate to them?
Malaysia is one of the major rubber producers in the world for many generations. The main concern in Malaysia is over growing plum trees for oil plam
😥
Sad how difficult progress can be in third world countries, the old traditions and indigenous cultures clashing with the inevitability of advanced people. Its sad whats happening but the guy telling us his 15 year old son and grandchildren were dead doeant spell an amazing quality of life pre plantation either
Cool
This is so heartbreaking… all we can do is spread awareness and boycott this big corporations😔💔
I think this was the government fault. Most likely those lands were passed thro their ancestors but never bought or registered for many reasons(maybe they weren’t able to do so in the first place).
The government BEFORE selling land to the companies they needed to first check them and see which ones were really empty/not used by community and work with them to register their lands before XX/XX/XXXX date, and all lands not registered after that date would be free to be sold to foreign companies.
Selling them without bothering to check on them is borderline inhumane when you know so many people on the country side don’t have any other alternatives to feed themselves, they are letting them to die in plain sight

No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress in trading you're still way ahead of everyone who isn't trying
or who quite after the first bad experience! the falling 97-99% are not a myth! it is logical
People try their luck when they are scared to loose their money or have failed during the past and that's me making a loss of €4,670 last year October on crypto investments but not till I was referred to Mr Jurgen bright a rare and Trusted crypto expert trader who helped me recover all my losses and made extra profit for me
@@lesleyannaffleck505 This is not my first time hearing of Jürgen bright and his amazing trading skills but I have no idea how to reach him

Shocking to see more greedy capitalism in foreign countries, as an Australian, I feel so privileged . I wish I could do more to help people, in these types of situations. Makes me sad.
@Nicky. Me too. Helping the underprivileged through KIVA has helped me to help others. May you be well & happy.
We recycle single use plastic bags and reclaimed rubber, then turn them into synthetic rubber sheets. Each year we recycle more than 500 metric tons of plastic bags and reclaimed rubber footwear.
As a Vietnamese, I think that the Cambodian government is wrong. The reason for this is just a lack of communication between the government and the locals. HAGL did nothing wrong, they paid for the land with their own money and why do they have to give it back? If the lands belong to the locals, the Cambodian government shouldn't sell them in the first place.
Why do you have to give back stolen things? In case a thing that people literally need in order to feed themselves. I think the answer is pretty obvious.
The tree plantation is far more productive use of the land than what the indigenous people are getting out of it. The government should instead use earnings from these plantations help those people. It's a net benefit to everyone.
Not true. The plantations don't have good soil so the soil doesn't absorb as much water as typical rainforest soil would during rainy season, ergo, causing flash floods in area of plantations.
I had no idea that car tyres use natural rubber. I recently had mine replaced, but I asked to keep the old tyres to use as planters for garden vegetables. Now, I want to get more old tyres to recycle and give them a new life
It's best your old tires go for energy production like in cement plants.
Tires are more than just rubber, it’s also steel for the belting. The rubber is heated with additives so it can resist heat and friction. Lots of used tires go to cement factories as well as asphalt companies since the molten rubber makes a great binder
Cambodia 🇰🇭 is now getting some recognition and the struggles of the Khmer people
If they had weapons they wouldn’t have to beg for scrapes of what was always theirs.
A sad reality, blame it on the corrupt government officials who signed the lease documents in return for cash. Don't blame it on the investors because they legally leased it from your country. The ones these people should protest against are the ones who sold their country for cash.
Not only Cambodian suffers from this rubber plantation.I’m from Cameroon 🇨🇲 and it’s a lot worst here cause it’s own by the government so most of the government lands are either occupied by rubber plantations or palm trees and yet we get the least of products in our country as they are being shipped out for sale to other countries…people suffer out living in camps working in the company with little or no payments and the exposure of mosquitoes as malaria happens to be one of the deadliest of the many diseases they are exposed to…..I’m glad to see this up cause I grew in one of the camps here in Cameroon known as the MISELELE RUBBER PLANTATION it was a crazy experience that I’m glad to make it out but thousands of children are stock in theses camps without good school and good knowledge far worst than a refugee camps
Heartless the fact that they destroyed a grave site
