Indonesian products<\/p>\n
The people have the chance to view the long-forgotten
\nExhibition of Indonesian Products, which started on May 20 and
\nwill end on May 29 at the Jakarta Fairground. The exhibition,
\nrecently inaugurated by President Megawati Soekarnoputri, aims to
\nencourage the people to patronize Indonesian products.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Indonesia continues to pride itself as one of the
\ncountries on the frontline of trade liberalization, a position
\nthat has boomeranged.<\/p>\n
Imported products come to the country in different ways --
\nlegally, at dumped price. Indonesian consumers are obviously
\nhappy to have many choices at competitive prices. However, the
\ncountry's producers are unhappy to see increasing threats to
\ntheir markets.<\/p>\n
Megawati's administration has begun to protect the domestic
\nmarket in facing the flow of foreign goods amid fears that more
\nenterprises might lay off their workers.<\/p>\n
The key to winning the people's trust for certain goods and
\nservices thus lies in the producers' ability to give the people
\nwhat they want.<\/p>\n
Learn from Inul Daratista who has successfully 'beaten'
\nBritney Spears, or from the TV series Si Doel, which has
\novertaken Sex and the City -- a very popular movie in the United
\nStates. Look at the success of the bottled tea, Sosro, which in
\nno less popular than Coca Cola or at Wong Solo restaurant, which
\nis no less aggressive than McDonald's. -- Bisnis Indonesia,
