CarbonEthics at ABAC Meeting I 2026: Building a Credible Carbon Market in Geoeconomic Landscape
Updated: Mar 18
CarbonEthics participated in the APEC Business Advisory Council (ABAC) Themed Lunch Meeting in Jakarta on 9 February 2026, focused on the role of the Indo-Pacific in advancing green growth, digital innovation, and economic transition amid a shifting geoeconomics landscape.
The event opened with remarks from Shinta Widjaja Kamdani, Coordinating Vice Chairman for Human Development, Culture, and Sustainable Development at Kamar Dagang dan Industri Indonesia (KADIN). During the panel session, CarbonEthics CEO, Bimo Soewadji, joined Victor Lesmana, Director of Bukalapak, and Celeste Connors, President of East-West Centre, in a discussion moderated by Yijun Lim of BloombergNEF.
During the panel, Bimo Soewadji shared perspectives on how credible carbon markets are built on strong governance, regulatory clarity, and meaningful local community engagement to support long-term, sustainable investment in the APEC region.
As geoeconomic dynamics recalibrate trade and climate finance, Bimo Soewadji emphasized that strong regional connectivity supported by regulatory infrastructure, for example, Indonesia’s Presidential Regulation No. 110/2025. Clear rules create confidence, and confidence attracts capital—moving markets from design to real traction.

CarbonEthics participation at ABAC Meeting I 2026 emphasized that sustainable carbon markets are built on strong safeguards and meaningful community engagement. For nature-based solutions, which are often defined by longer delivery horizons and structural bankability challenges, social license and regulatory clarity are not optional; they are foundational to long-term risk mitigation. While trusted and interoperable regional frameworks take time to develop, they are essential to sustaining growth and competitiveness across the Indo-Pacific.
CarbonEthics is committed to advancing a high-integrity carbon market anchored in strong governance, regulatory certainty, and inclusive local partnerships—strengthening the foundation for long-term climate resilience.

The article provides useful guidance about Subhadra Status and explains the checking process in simple language. I found the information practical because applicants can understand the basic steps and know what information they may need while checking updates.
It's refreshing to see CarbonEthics pushing the conversation beyond offsets and into actual governance—Bimo's point about Indonesia's Presidential Regulation No. 110/2025 creating the confidence that attracts capital really stuck with me. Clear rules do matter more than vague pledges, especially when geoeconomics keeps shifting the goalposts for climate finance. Speaking of scoring systems and rare outcomes, I've been hooked on the daily trivia over at krillion unlimited, where a perfect 700 sinks you 7,000 metres—oddly similar to how every point of regulatory clarity adds up in carbon markets. Good luck to the team heading into the next ABAC round.
Color values can become confusing when moving between design programs and coding environments. Using hex to rgb conversion provides a simple way to obtain the RGB components of a hexadecimal shade. This can help developers compare colors, troubleshoot styling, and reuse an existing palette without repeatedly adjusting shades by visual estimation.
I saw a comment about pokepath td during my coffee break, which reminded me of CarbonEthics' talk at ABAC 2026. They mentioned Indonesia’s Presidential Regulation No. 110/2025 as an example of how clear rules can build trust, and I thought, maybe pokepath td could help streamline those processes if integrated properly.
