ILONGGO craftsmanship takes center stage as local weaving enterprises participate in ASEAN Amazing Weaves, held on November 10-12, 2026 at Okada Manila, under the theme “Way of the Weave.”
The regional showcase celebrates ASEAN’s rich weaving traditions while promoting cultural heritage, creativity, and sustainable livelihood opportunities for artisans.
Representing Iloilo are Mr. Erik Castelo and Salngan Livelihood Multi-Purpose Cooperative, in partnership with the Local Government Unit of Oton, showcasing Ilonggo-made woven products to a broader market.
With the support and assistance of the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Iloilo Provincial Office, the exhibitors gain valuable market exposure and opportunities to connect with potential buyers and industry partners.
Through initiatives like ASEAN Amazing Weaves, DTI Iloilo continues to champion local craftsmanship, empower weaving communities, and expand market opportunities for Ilonggo products beyond the province./PN
