Respuesta :

This statement is true.
Due to population pressures in many parts of the world, but Indonesia in particular, some unique habitats in south-east Asia are being threatened. This especially refers to the habitats of orangutans, but other animals as well. 

Answer:

The given statement on habitats in South East Asia is true.

Explanation:

Indonesia has a population of over 184 million people, and it is considered a fifth county in the universe with that much population. With more than 13,700 islands it is covered with 70% seawater and 195 million hectares of land. The most populated city is Java, with a population of 61% which makes it susceptible to resource exploitation.  

While the villagers rely on agriculture, population increase is also a concern for Indonesia. There has been transmigration to other cities which lead to fights with the natives. Transmigration is done to ease overpopulation, however, it threatens the countries forest. Increase in population will increase the exploitation of resources, and the Indonesian islands account for 10% of the world's rain forest.
