Promote local products

From Bisnis Indonesia

Our success in badminton has been extraordinary. The achievements, however, are not accompanied by the promotion of Indonesian products.

The products promoted by our shuttlers are Yonex products and recently the Opel car. I would like to recommend to exporters of Indonesian goods that they become sponsors of badminton players. Some domestic products available in foreign markets and whose companies have gone public are Kasogi, Beng Beng, Indomie, Fina chips and Bank Danamon.

The agency for export development, the Indonesia Badminton Association and the companies concerned should cooperate to promote Indonesian goods.
