South Kalimantan Governor Sahbirin Noor or popularly known as Uncle Birin harvested Hiyung bird's eye chili in Tapin District and handed over assistance to build a hygienic house.
"The potential of Hiyung bird's eye chili is marvelous. It is developed, redeveloped, and expanded. We know that chili is needed by people all over Indonesia and abroad," he pointed out in Rantau, Saturday.
After harvesting with farmers and the Tapin government, the two-term governor said he was proud of the achievement of the Hiyung bird's eye chili.
"I think (its) marketing is not difficult, because many people consume it. Hopefully, it will be useful for everyone," he said.
