“I often wear batik to formal events,” said Annisa as quoted by kapanlagi.com recently in Jakarta.
The daughter in-law of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono is living in the US as her husband Capt. Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono is taking his masters degree at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
Annisa said that she always tried to introduce batik to people and to explain to them that batik came from Indonesia. In Boston, Annisa also took part in a photo shoot for a batik brand.
“Batik is Indonesia’s heritage that needs to be preserved,” she said. — JP
