“The booth I set up showcased some of the creative uses of the Songket at formal events, and promoting the ‘Pekatan’ brand, which includes ready-to-eat crackers,” she said.
“I was not expecting a lot of people to attend the event, so the strong turnout goes beyond my expectation. I think it is great to have such an enthusiastic crowd.
“This is my first public talk discussing my past and current achievements. I hope this will inspire women and youths to be more proactive and to make the most of their lives,” she concluded.
The event ended with Pertiwi Association Chairperson Fatimah binti Tanji presenting souvenirs to the speakers.
Pertiwi Association members were also present at the talk. The association is a women’s organisation formed in 1968.
