BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN: Rattan House celebrated its second anniversary on Saturday (Dec 21), marking two years of promoting South-East Asia’s cultural heritage.

The event, attended by Ambassador of Vietnam to Brunei Darussalam Tran Anh Vu, highlighted efforts in preserving traditional crafts and empowering artisans.

A highlight was the launch of the South-East Asian Traditional Craft Encyclopedia (SEATCE), aimed at documenting, promoting and preserving regional crafts.

The project will support artisans with market access, skill development and digital tools while engaging youth to ensure the transfer of cultural knowledge.

“Tonight, we celebrate not only our past achievements but also the launch of a vision that belongs to all of us,” said founder and Chief Executive Officer Maisarah Nguyen. – Borneo Bulletin/ANN
