We firstly investigate the common-sense phenomenon that why there is a tendency on the decreasing demand of traditional timber-based house ( bola ugi’) construction in South Sulawesi province Indonesia. From this start, we analyse the two policies implementation of timber logging community-based forestry policies (people forest plantation and people forests), that taken Barru district as our location study. We found that there is no direct correlation between the decreasing motives of villagers using the traditional wooden house and the policies. We further investigated the policies’ implementation and found some ambiguities, including incompatibility with traditional forest plantation system within the formal timber logging community-based forestry policies. We found also a very weak facilitation and support from the government and also its connection with the market.
