It is a showcase of a wide range of exclusive items including leather goods, glassware, shawls, hand painting, silverware, batik, jewellery and many others.

One of the participants told the Bulletin that she is lucky to be able to participate in the event as it will help to widen her business contacts with entrepreneurs from other countries.

She said the buying power in Brunei is encouraging and she looks forward to the near future for such an exhibition to be held again in the country.
