| Abstract |
The talun bark is used by the various
etnic groups in Sarawak to produce crafts such as vests, purses and hats. This bookmark cum fridge magnet is an innovation in the use of the tree bark. The bookmark is thin and that makes it a good bookmark which will not spoil the pages of a book. The top layer is the talun bark and the bottom layer is a flat piece of magnet sheet. Tourists, collectors of fridge magnets can buy it as souveniers. This ‘Talun Bark
Bookmark and Fridge Magnet’ would have a positive impact on the Sarawak tourism and handicraft industry as it will help to diversify and develop the Sarawak handicraft industry. |
