hi!
i cam across you searching 'indonesia' on EFF.
I am a designer based in Indonesia (Bandung, Java) currently trying to
source organic fabrics/dyes/printing and have found it very
challenging despite there being a very large textile and garment
manufacture industry!
Do you have any reccomendations or experiences you would like to share from you time as a Fair trade consultant in Aceh?
Thanks :)
