Vietnam Province Works to Preserve Brocade Weaving
The Central Highlands province of Gia Lai has opened a training course on brocade weaving techniques for 50 Bahnar people in Glar commune, Dak Doa district.
This is a part of a programme to preserve and develop local people's traditional brocade weaving.
Participants at the three-month course will also be taken on a tour of Dam Yi Brocade Weaving Cooperative and A Ko Tourism Hamlet in the province to learn how to market their products to earn more income.
Huynh Huu Sam, Deputy Director of Dac Lac's industry promotion centre, said his centre will set up a club for brocade weavers in Glar commune after the course. The centre also plans to organise more training courses on this traditional craft in other areas.
