Indonesia`s Batik Finally Protected

Indonesia`s Batik Finally Protected
Jakarta - Justice and Human Rights Minister Andi Mattalatta inaugurated Wednesday a copyright on Indonesian batik called "batikmark" -- a measure expected to provide a legal identity to Indonesian-made batik.

The launch of the Indonesian batik copyright was held in conjunction with the opening of the Gebyar Batik Nusantara batik exhibition by First Lady Ani Yudhoyono at the Jakarta Convention Center in Central Jakarta.

"Batikmark hopefully will ... sustain batik as part of our traditional Indonesian heritage and will help promote Indonesian batik to the international community," Mattalatta told Antara.

"It is also expected to increase the consumers‘ trust on the quality of Indonesian batik."

He said the government, through the Yogyakarta Grand Handicraft and Batik House, would issue certificates of batikmark for producers which had met all the national standards for batik production.
