KUALA TERENGGANU, Jan 16 (Bernama) — After Europe, the Terengganu Entrepreneur Development Foundation is looking to the Middle East to promote batik and songket.
Foundation general manager Azmi Razik said today the idea was to popularise Terengganu batik and songket to the world.
A delegation sent to Spain, Italy and England had received good response, he told reporters after opening the seminar on the marketing of Terengganu batik and songket in Europe here.
Several well known people in the garment industry of the cities that the delegation visited last year expressed interest in using batik and songket in their creations, he said.
“Middle east countries are next,” he said, adding that the state government was encouraging overseas marketing.
The one-day seminar was for the batik and songket entrepreneurs to get information on the market potential of the products in several countries.
