Arrow Resources Development Inc (OTC:ARWD)

Arrow Resources Development, Inc. provides corporate operating structure, financial operations, sales and marketing activities and the administration of the corporate citizenship programs for natural resource development companies in the Asian market. Its initial relationship with Arrow Pacific Resources Group Limited (BVI company) is for the development of large scale plantation/farming and mining operations in Indonesia. Arrow has signed a similar agreement with Gerakan Masyarakat Pelestari Lingkungan Hidup (GMPLH), and GMPLH's joint venture partner, PT Tiga Duan (Indonesian company owned by Arrow Pacific) for the large scale plantation/farming and ethanol plants in Indonesia. Arrow agreements entitle the Company to 10% of all gross revenue generated by all their partners' plantation/farming including any and all sales of natural resources and derivative products (e.g. paper, pulp, chips, etc.).

The planet’s consumption of forestry products has more than doubled over the last 30 years as global population continues to grow. The increased demand for forestry products has also led to the need for increased protection of forests and wildlife, and a more public participation in forestry management. The demand for imported raw material for China’s low-cost timber manufacturing industries is increasing sharply and establishing a more expansive market for international suppliers. The forestry community in the Asia-Pacific region, where the Companies’ plantation will be located, possesses an advantage in the industry of greater periods of harvesting and re-growth in comparison to other countries that experience periods of dormancy. This is primarily caused by adverse weather and seasonal conditions. This enables growers in the region to cope with the ever shifting goals and expectations associated with the rapid evolution of social, economic and environmental issues that impact policies, legislation, and institutions. The increase in demand was rapidly exploited in many areas by timbering operations that stripped forests bare with no regard for their environmental damage, or replenishing the timber resources being consumed. This mercenary behavior was responded to with strict and immediate regulation and monitoring of the industry by government environmental agencies and consumer advocacy groups on lumbering operations worldwide. Despite the increase in demand, the shortage of suppliers who are able to meet environmental standards has caused the forestry industry to shrink by an estimated 9.4 million ha per annum.
