SANTUBONG: The Rainforest World Craft Bazaar (RWCB) was a big hit among locals, especially female entrepreneurs, judging by both the crowd and gamut of goods sold during the 3-day extravaganza.
Among those participating at the RWCB, which was held in conjunction with the Rainforest World Music Festival (RWMF) 2011, were four entrepreneurs sponsored by the Women’s Bureau of the Chief Minister’s Department.
The group’s representative Amal Hussain said this was the first time they participated in RWCB and they were thrilled to bits with the response from festival-goers.
“There are always customers at our booths and tourists just love our local handicrafts,” he said.
Amal said that he and his female friends did not want to miss the good business opportunity provided by the Women’s Bureau to promote their goods.
Among items sold at the bazaar were ceramics, traditional costume jewellery from various local ethnic groups and cakes.
“Most of the things we sold were purchased by foreign tourists because they said they wanted something that reflects the beautiful Sarawak culture.”
