The Tanah Laut Council for Indonesian National Handicrafts (Dekranasda) performed at two exhibition in Jakarta.


One at the 7th Nusantara Expo on the 44th anniversary of Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII) in 2019, which runs from April 19 to 21. Second on the 21st International Handicraft Trade Fair (Inacraft 2019), from April 24 to 28, 2019 at the Jakarta Convention Center (JCC) in Central Jakarta.

At the two exhibitions Dekranasda presented the Tanah Laut jimpit sasirangan fabric with three motifs, the motif of Kijang, Orchid and Corn. Also displayed sasirangan bags, purun woven bags, amplang (a traditional savoury fish cracker snack) from catfish, kalulut honey and other original Tanah Laut products.

At the 7th Nusantara Expo in TMII, the Tanah Laut Dekranasda stand successfully gained a sales turnover of Rp 25 million and at Inacraft the stand also successfully earned a turnover of Rp9.5 million.

Tanah Laut Regent H Sukamta said the 7th Nusantara Expo was a medium to promote superior products from the Tanah Laut District, both nationally and internationally.

That, he said, as an effort of the Manpower and Industry Agency(Disnakerin) and Dekranasda in guiding craftsmen and SMEs in the district.

The event, he said, was to be able to display crafts and products with good quality and to compete nationally and internationally.

"This is all thanks to the hard work of Disnakerin and the Tanah Laut Dekranasda which continues to foster and encourage craftsmen and SMEs in Bumi Tuntung Pandang (nickname of Tanah Laut) to work," he said.
